[edit]Like this article, but could someone please work in a mention of Nashville hero Jere Baxter and his relationship to the line? I think that Baxter, Tennessee is even named for him. It's right on the old TC line. Also, perhaps a mention of how nice the old Cookeville station was?
Isn't the locomotive in Centennial Park from the NC&StL, not the TC?

[edit]I just took the following (from User:Lite1x out of the article and moved it here:
- The building and steam locomotive mentioned above are not Tennessee Central. The building was the NC&StL (Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis) Railway office on Broad St. near Union Station. Union Station served the NC&StL and L&N railroads. The TC station was at the end of Broad St. by the river. The steam locomotive, which is in Centennial Park near the Parthenon, is an NC&StL locomotive once used to haul the railway's premier passenger trains as well as heavy freights. It was removed from service in 1952 and placed in the park in 1953.
- There are no known surviving TC steamers, but a locomotive similar to some the TC had is on display at the depot museum in Cookeville, Tenn.
- A related note; Commuter passenger service is scheduled to begin in fall of 2006 from a station being built on the site of the former TC passenger depot at the foot of Broad St. The Music City Star will use the former TC, now Nashville & Eastern, route running east.
