But the trains kept coming and going from the old station, even after it became a hotel-restaurant attraction. The complex, named after the popular musical composition, Chattanooga Choo Choo, turned 100 years old in December. And what was missing from the anniversery celebration? Would you believe a train? Sad but true. The usual parade of freight trains trundled into Chattanooga all day long on Dec 1, but nowhere in the mix was a flash of varnish. Not even a locomotive and caboose from the freight yard arrived to help commemorate the anniversery. Sir Topham Hatt would not have been amused.  Chattanooga Times photograph |
