- On September 16, 2023, the Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum ran its first Summerville Steam Special down to Summerville, GA after four years. What made this even more special was that they ran a doubleheader with #630 and #4501 to mark the triumphant return of steam to the foothills of northwest Georgia. Rail enthusiasts from across the country came to witness the spectacle as well as the many locals in the multiple small, historic towns the railroad passes through on the way to Summerville. While the weather wasn't the most ideal, it didn't stop me or many others from chasing the Southern Railway duo down into Georgia and back. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the sounds of Southern Railway #630 & #4501 as they thunder down the track. I hope y'all enjoy!
Great video! Was definitely fun out chasing those, I think quite nearly every railfan within 2-3 hours of Chattanooga was out chasing them on that day, lol.
Also I see myself at 22:27, lol.
Thanks! And, oh, for sure! If it was sunny, it would've been even more of a foamfest than it was. lol
@@MiddleTennesseeRailProductions Absolutely, lmao.
Great work on your catches here! The pouring of support on-and-off the train was impressive. I haven’t seen this many people chase the Summerville train, probably ever. Keep it up!
Thanks!
Incredible!!! Very high quality and great shots! That was a super fun chase! Despite the amount of people on the roads 🥵
Thanks! And yeah, it definitely was!
Que hermosas maquinas ojala se conserve mucho tiempo buena potencia
great awesome catches at the Tennessee Valley railroad of this doubleheader of these steamers trip run
Great catches awesome chase and nice video
Lovely video of a much anticipated day. It truly was lovely to see how happy so many people were, from the return to Summerville, to the double header, and the whitewalls on 630. I especially enjoyed your video showing the consist and the drumhead trailing on the rear, this seems to have been overlooked in many videos. Thank you for sharing.
Many thanks!
Fantastic Shots what if 630 and 4501 run the Southern Main Lines.
Thanks! And, unlikely as of now, but never say never.
❤THIS IS EXACTLY WHY I LOVE TRAINS THE MOST ❤
One of the better videos from this run. Good stuff.
Thank you!
Awesome train chase
17:07 SOU #4501's Ex-V&SW 3 chime.
That's actually a Virginia & Southwestern 3-chime, if I remember correctly. I'm pretty sure #4501's original whistle is a Princeton 3-chime, which is much higher-pitched.
Awesome video! It’s always nice to see the Summerville Special running! The only thing I didn’t like was 4501’s whistle. Personally, I don’t really think the V&SW 3 chime suits it that well. Then again, that’s just my opinion.
Thanks!
I like the sound of the V&SW On 4501. Gives her a strong Southern vibe. True 630 sounds better with it, it's nice to see the whistles getting swapped for a change. The CofG 6 certainly sounds awkward on 630 after it's long absence
Seeing as 630 last wore the Central of Georgia 6 chime in 2019, which was only 4 years ago, I surely thought it would’ve had something different like either the N&W J class whistle, B&M 6 chime, IC Steamboat whistle, L&N 6 chime, or even the Crosby 3 chime. Oh well, beggars can’t be choosers.
