Introduce young rail fans to a remarkable chapter of Tennessee history with this Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis Railway toddler tee. The line began with a 1845 charter, and its first train reached Antioch in 1851. Crews and builders crossed challenging terrain on the route to Chattanooga, with Cowan Tunnel among its notable features. The railway later became known as the Dixie Line, connecting family interest in trains with a story of determination, regional travel, and changing rail networks.
The Nashville and Chattanooga Railroad was chartered in Nashville on December 11, 1845, and organized in 1848. Its first locomotive arrived in 1850, and the first train ran to Antioch the following spring. After nine years of construction across difficult terrain, the 150-mile line between Nashville and Chattanooga was completed; Cowan Tunnel was a notable engineering feature. The railway served Tennessee and extended into Kentucky, Alabama, and Georgia. During the Civil War, its tracks and bridges were repeatedly damaged and repaired. The company acquired several connecting railroads after the war and was reincorporated as the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis Railway in 1873, although its tracks did not reach St. Louis. The Louisville and Nashville Railroad gained control in 1880, while the two companies continued to operate separately until their 1957 merger. The railway ended steam operations in 1953. Its successor corporate history continued through the Seaboard System, renamed CSX Transportation in 1986. CSX continues to use the original route between Nashville, Chattanooga, and Atlanta; other sections, including the route to Hickman, were abandoned.
