It is mid-March of 2025, and in a list ditch attempt to save a late Winter trip, we make our way to our favorite railroad museum of all time. The Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum. During these two days, Southern Railway steam locomotive #630 would power the museum's Missionary Ridge Local trains. She put on a great show, and we cannot wait to see her again.

*The entire first day was a literal roller coaster weatherwise. The day began with a powerful thunderstorm with potential flash floods. This would last until the third train of the day. A second wave was about to hit around the time the crew was supposed to tie down. In an effort to save time, the 3:30 trip and the ferry back to East Chattanooga ran at the railroads maximum speed of 20 miles per hour. And with the permission of an employee, we captured this intense moment at Allied Metals (don't normally get this location, we had permission).

Special shoutout to the crews of TVRM. They braved one of the most intense thunderstorms in a long time.

Enjoy yet another look at 630 at the Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum.
