We had a great turnout for our workday on Saturday. The crew took a divide and conquered approach by working on multiple projects at the same time. We had a track crew working on the Grandma Line installing a new switch off the mainline on the west end of the project. We had another group work on electrical throughout the property and so much more going on throughout the day.

It is hard to believe that we are just days away from our first public run day of the 2025 season. Before we can open up we have a few last minute winter projects to complete around the railroad which includes installing a new switch, railroad maintenance, and equipment maintenance before we open for the season. On Saturday, March 22nd starting at 8:30 a.m. we be our next workday and our last workday before our first public run day of the season on Saturday, April 5th to prepare the railroad and property for our visitors.
If you are able to come out make sure you bring tools, knee pads, lunch, and a great sense of humor. See everyone soon.
It is hard to believe that March is finally here and the weather teased us with a clear warm day. A lot of members came out ran trains and worked on a variety of other projects as everyone starts transitioning from winter to spring activities.
Our 2025 train ride schedule has been set and we look forward to seeing everyone around the railroad this season.

What an incredible day. The air warmed up, and the sun was bright throughout the day. We had an energetic crew at the site helping to repair both of the outer loop tracks on the east side of the railroad.
Our regularly scheduled workday is this Saturday, February 22nd, with a focus on performing major track repair on the east loop of the railroad. We need to repair about 100 feet of track, which has large gaps between sections that limit the ability to use the railroad. The day will start a little cold but will warm up, especially since we will be working in the sun. Make sure you bring lunch, tools, and a good sense of humor.
Please note that this track work needs to be done before our next Club Fun Day, which is Saturday, March 1st. If we have a large enough crew, we may have a couple of people split off and work on finishing building the curve switch for the “Grandma Line” project, and if we get really lucky, maybe even install the switch. That is a big maybe.
North Georgia Live Steamers want to wish all of you and your special someone a Happy Valentine’s Day.
