What an odd coincidence.Originally Posted by Dedworth
Have you been on the Chattanooga Choo Choo ?
I was actually staying at a hotel in Chatanooga called Chatanooga Choo Choo, when I took the holiday special train. The room was a rennovated carriage, wonderful.
My job was also my hobby.
In those days, although the tour was called "Last Train To Clarksville" the train stopped at Nashville for lunch then we all took the tour bus to the museum at Clarksville station.There's a lot of 'Railway Buffs' in USA and it seems they all like to sing 'railway buff songs'.
It was almost fun.
The thing that struck me was that there were two other tours, one called Chatanooga Choo Choo Express and the other called The Nashville Special.
It was exactly the same train each time to Nashville just a different commentary on the way.
So I guess by default I also rode the Chatanooga Choo Choo
I only took the weekend tour to Clarksville.
I never took the midnight train to Georgia. I wasn't even in the country at that time
