Tullahoma. Fall 1964.
The were acquired by the C&EI from the NKP, and then some were acquired by the L&N later from the C&EI.
This pix was taken in June, 1961, on the next to last Shriners Railway Special. The equipment the L&N supplied for this trip soured just about everyone, and although the equipment supplied the next year was much better, all of the trips since have been by air.
Most of the tracks seen here are gone except for the track the train is on, and one other on the other side of the train. About 1/2 mile behind this scene, CSX now splits to the south and gets on NS to run through town to East End, where CSX again takes to it's own tracks.
Chattanooga pretty much forced this issue around 1972, in order to get the trains out of the downtown streets. By then, there were no passenger trains, and the historic depot had been torn down. Historic because parts of it were in use during the Civil War.
