that caboose was not a nc&stl caboose, it is a former centralia car shops built illinois central transfer caboose, & the box cars are former louisville & nashville maintance of way tool cars, that was railroad that last owned this line and then had it abandoned in the late 1960's in favor of their other line that ran from nashville to memphis over part of the former nc& stl from nashville to mc kenzie tn, then over the l&n from there to memphis tn
i herd the story of why they picked the L&N line was because the L&N had a yard on their line into memphis. NCSL had one but it was in a terrible spot
Very nice, yet also very sad.
