[QUOTE]Originally posted by George Harris: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by palmland: [qb] It looks like a group in Nashville is about to pull a NC&StL 4-8-4 out of a city park, restore it and run it on the Nashville and Eastern Ry, formerly the Tennessee Central Railroad. This will be quite a sight to see this 'Dixie' class locomotive pulling one of the TC Museum's well restored excursion trains. [URL=http://www.nashvillesteam.org/news/]NC&StL 576 restoration[/URL] [/qb][/QUOTE]That would be awesome if they can. Who will do the work and where? In the 1962 restoration and operation of the General the work was done in the South Louisville Shops, and at that time there were plenty of men still living that had done work on Steam, and presumably in the shop all the tools and equipment still in existence, as it had been less than 10 years more or less since the last regular steam on the L&N / NC&StL. Not even possible to see anything like the running of the route of the Great Locomotive Chase today. [/QB][/QUOTE]
