We're a couple of weeks away from the Nashville Steam - Tennessee Central Open House & Train Show! This is your chance to get an up close look at the progress on No. 576. The Tennessee Central Railway Museum will have their fleet of 1950s passenger cars open with lunch service available in the dining car! Don't miss this day of Nashville railroading!
Last month, our good friends Old Crow Medicine Show stopped by the shop for a photo shoot with No. 576 and other spots at the Tennessee Central Railway Museum. They needed an industrial setting for their upcoming album and we gladly welcomed them in! This continues a long tradition of 576 serving as the backdrop for musicians, albums, commercials, and magazine spreads. Look out for their new album this summer!![]()

We have power! 🚂💡 THANK YOU to the Emery Rail Heritage Trust for selecting Nashville Steam as one of this year's grant award recipients! This grant will go towards components and the future installation of No. 576's new electrical system. The Emery Trust previously provided funding for the overhaul of the locomotive's air pump, running gear work, and refurbishment of the crossheads and guides. We want to thank them for their continued support of 576!
