Our own Tennessee Titans are 2-0 and SEC gameplay starts this weekend. But remember, it can take the length of up to 18 football fields to stop a speeding train in an emergency. We join our friends with Operation Lifesaver Inc. to promote #RailSafetyWeek and remind everyone not to trespass on railroad property. See Tracks? Think Train. #StripeHype
THANK YOU to the Joyce Family Foundation for their recent contribution of $15,000 towards the restoration of the locomotive cab!! The Joyce Family previously donated to the relocation effort and we are so thankful and appreciative of their continued support of the restoration of NC&StL No. 576. We are also honored to have Mr. Alex Joyce serve on our Board of Directors.
And because of the 2020 Matching Grant, that gift has been doubled to $30,000!! We have more exciting news on the way so stay tuned! #TechTuesday #StripeHype

Once everything is cleaned up, heavy repair work to the boiler’s interior will begin. #StripeHype
