A fine video treatment of this classic railroad song - great work!
-
Is it me, or does it seem these old engines always need a Diesel helping them anymore. are they getting that weak?
-
Nice job with this!
-
Did this train ever go thru MontEagle, the tallest mountain in Tennessee?
-
thumbs up if your here cause of black books

@NCStL576 I'm not sure why it was that way in the video, but when I rode in 2007, it was just 610 and the coaches, no diesels in the train.

@NCStL576 TVRM's cars aren't equipped for HEP
610 just needed a push, cause her limit is 5 cars on the C&C

Who is Singing in this?

The 610 is one of the 3 Chattanooga Choo Choos. The other 2 being 630, and 4501, and they'll be steaming again soon.

@VillageIdiotPro if you are talking about the TVRM trains, no the diesel is not there for H.E.P., all of the A/C coaches have their own generators. The diesel is to help pull the train over Missionary Ridge, cause that is a pretty nasty grade over through there.
What's with the diesel?
but a good rendition of the song!

Well the reason is that 610 can't pull the 6 coaches the train had. That and maybe the train needed HEP.

nice vid we had a couple of E8s sent up here from that place i think. know anything about that?

Yes. Those are from the Tennessee CENTRAL. Not the Tennessee Valley. But you're close. The E8's have been repainted to original livery and they are both brothers with E8 6902, which is still down here.
