~ ~ ~ The shiny green locomotive, No. 4501, pulling three private cars, a baggage car, a coach and a tank car full of water was enroute to Louisville, Ky. It stopped at Oakdale Aug. 18, 1966 with Earl Lehman of Oakdale as engineer and Joe Goldston as Conductor. From Louisville the train went thru Richmond, Va. via Knoxville to the National Railroad Historical Society Convention. The train is the property of the Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum in Chattanooga, Tn. Southern RR bought it from the K. & T RR Co. at Stearns KY. Southern discontinued the use of steam locomotives soon after WW II. ~ ~ ~ From the Morgan County News, Aug. 25, 1966 |
