The

Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum where visitors have the
opportunity to ride in vintage train coaches pulled by authentic
steam and diesel locomotives. The
museum was built by and is
maintained solely through the loving efforts of its train
enthusiast members.
One of the
Chattanooga Choo Choo's most popular trips is the 50 minute
round-trip Missionary Ridge Local, which travels through one of
the oldest railroad tunnels in Tennessee. Highlights of the trip
include a visit to the museum's vast repair shop where countless
trains are in the process of being lovingly restored to their
former glory, and the East
Chattanooga turntable where visitors
can watch the engine detach from the train and pivot around on a
massive rotating platform for the return trip.
