Thanks for the article. We were there for two hours this last spring. Would have preferred two days.

At the Train Show? Bet it was good. Would like to go sometime.

I like the detail on the precast girders. Shows the camber (slight rise in the middle) of them. They are designed that way. When the deck is placed, the girders will flatten out to level. Enjoy all of your posts.

Be sure to include the one mile long incline rail on the southwest side of town.
It has been a while since I have been to Chattanooga. Riding around Mission Ridge provided a time step back to the 1940s.

Question: Were they still running the trolley in back?[/quote]
Didn't see any evidence of a trolley in the back, but there could have been. Don't think that we were ever back far enough to see the back. Behind the station are more hotel rooms.

Yes, Pat those are the tracks with a covered walkway between them. The two outside tracks are still there with the sleeping cars that you can rent.

This is the print of the original complex showing station and track plan where the trains backed in for unloading and loading.

Now a hotel. They have old Pullman cars on the boarding tracks that have been converted to hotel rooms that you can rent.

Should be an X in the upper right corner to turn it off. Might have to move cursor around to make it show up.
