From the archives of Classic Trains, a trip from Nashville to Memphis becomes a learning experience in this spoken-word story by Doss Moore. This special presentation has been brought to you by Nashville Steam, a non-profit organization restoring Nashville’s very own steam locomotive, No. 576, a sister engine to the one featured in Doss Moore’s story. Through Nashville’s efforts, the magic of steam railroading will return to Music City and Middle Tennessee. You can support the restoration of 576 with a donation and watch our progress by subscribing on YouTube.
There is nothing as invigorating as the mighty Iron Horse.
THE STEAM LOCOMOTIVE has inspired millions of people throughout history –
and Nashville, Chattanooga & St. Louis Railway No. 576 is about to inspire thousands more.
NASHVILLE STEAM is undertaking the restoration and operation of a Nashville legend.
The adventure departs now. Will you climb aboard The Stripe?

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.
We are in LOVE with Pearl Jam's merch for their Nashville concert tonight! 🚂🎸 No. 576's connection to the music industry goes back decades since it first started appearing on album covers in the 60s and 70s while on display in Centennial Park. Just another example of how it truly is a Music City landmark! Oh, and if anyone is going to the show tonight, could you grab us a shirt? The engine wears a 76XL 😉
