 | All Aboard - Norfolk Southern Atlanta to Chattanooga The Norfolk Southern Georgia Division runs 148 miles from Atlanta, Georgia to Chattanooga Tennessee. The line began as the Selma, Rome and Dalton Railroad in 1869. Later the route was owned by the Southern Railroad until it's merger with the Norfolk & Western produced today's Norfolk Southern. This route begins at Inman Yard, 6 miles Northwest of Atlanta, and runs to Chattanooga's DeButts Yard. As one of the heaviest traffic rail lines in the South, it hosts over 24 trains each day. The viewer will see Powder River unit coal trains on their way to and from the world's largest coal fired power plant, molten sulfur unit trains, and the 'Triple Crown Roadrailer service. All types of modern freight traffic will roar by behind the latest NS power as well as Union Pacific, and Kansas City Southern pool locomotives. As a special treat a 1991 New Georgia Railroad steam fan trip is shown running on this line. |

 | Life's Railway To Heaven - sung by Jack Marti Here's another one by request. It took me a while to memorize all these lyrics, but I finally did, so, I hope you enjoy it! It certainly is a classic! Life's Railway to Heaven Eliza R. Snow M. E. Abbey Life is like a mountain railway, With an engineer that's brave; We must make the run successful, From the cradle to the grave; Watch the curves, the fills, the tunnels; Never falter, never quail; Keep your hands upon the throttle, And your eyes upon the rail. Refrain: Blessed Savior, Thou wilt guide us, Till we reach that blissful shore, When the angels wait to join us In Thy praise forevermore. You will roll up grades of trial; You will cross the bridge of strife; See that Christ is your conductor On this lightning train of life; Always mindful of obstruction, Do your duty, never fail; Keep your hands upon the throttle, And your eyes upon the rail. You will often find obstructions, Look for storms and wind and rain; On a fill, or curve, or trestle They will almost ditch your train; Put your trust alone in Jesus, Never falter, never fail; Keep your hands upon the throttle, And your eyes upon the rail. As you roll across the trestle, Spanning Jordan's swelling tide, You behold the Union Depot Into which your train will glide; There you'll meet the Sup'rintendent, God, the Father, God the Son, With the hearty, joyous plaudit, "Weary Pilgrim, welcome home." |
