This week marks ten years since Nashville Steam announced the goal of relocating and restoring Nashville, Chattanooga, & St. Louis No. 576 to full operation. We are now closer than ever to making that dream in to a reality. While the locomotive is the face of the organization, it is the people behind the scenes who are the real heroes. The second picture is just a small fraction of the hundreds of volunteers who have been involved over the years to get where we are today. It's through their dedication that we will soon be hearing the rhythm of the rails echoing again through the heart of Music City and the Middle Tennessee countryside. We would like to offer our utmost thanks and appreciation to those individuals, our donors, as well as our restoration partners at the Tennessee Central Railway Museum and R. J. Corman Railroad Group for their assistance with No. 576. To learn more, support the restoration, or find out how you can get involved in bringing a piece of history back to life, go to www.nashvillesteam.org. ... See MoreSee Less
