Relive the golden age of railroading. Experience the classic Missionary Ridge Local, take an all-day excursion to Summerville, Georgia, or see the beautiful Hiwassee River Gorge.
All this and more at the Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum, the largest operating historic railroad in the Southeast!
The Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum is proud to offer a wide variety of rides to suit your needs. For a quick trip, our Missionary Ridge Local takes only 55 minutes but packs all sorts of excitement from a ride through a Civil War era tunnel to a guided tour of our restoration shop. Looking for something a little longer? Try our Chickamauga Turn, a 5-1/2 hour roundtrip ride to historic Chickamauga, Ga.
