Nashville Steam Successfully Moves No. 576, First Time In 65 Years

By August 14, 2018Progress Report, Video

This past Friday, Nashville Steam reached a true milestone in the restoration of No. 576. After nearly 65 years of lying in repose, the locomotive showed the first sign of life. Months of work from our volunteers, and a large wrecker truck, finally freed up the wheels and running gear, allowing the locomotive to roll back a few feet. A truly unforgettable sight!

We’re closer than ever to reaching our initial fundraising goal! And with our new matching grant, now is the perfect time to donate! Head to the link below and help give No. 576 a second lease on life!
