For the grand finale, the two engines stormed the 5% grade leading from the Belt Line to TVRM tracks at the East Chattanooga!

The sound of them both working hard was utterly brilliant! 🚂🎉

The doubleheader rolls through Rock Spring, GA and the campus of Georgia Northwestern Technical College.

Beginning the return trip, 630 and 4501 pull the train over the bridge at Trion, GA.

630 goes for a spin on the turntable… the last time she’ll enjoy such a ride for a bit.

TVRM’s Southern caboose was parked on the turntable track, so 4501 had to move it for both engines to be turned.

Sunday was the day that EVERYONE was out for 😅 TVRM did some juggling beforehand - putting 4501 on the Summerville train first, parking the Local in the yard and coupling 630 to the Summerville train.

Shortly after 9:00am, the adventure began!

Saturday was a chill day; 4501 ran to Summerville, while 630 powered her final turns on the Missionary Ridge Local.

I survived the Great Summerville FoamFest of 2025 😅 It was great seeing both 630 and 4501 doublehead a train - both engines put on a splendid show!

Below are some pictures and video clips from the weekend’s activities 😊
