2nd Annual North Georgia Live Steamers Fall Meet - October 20th - 23rd
The number of days until our Fall Meet is getting smaller and smaller. We are just a week away and are excited to share our railroad with others in this great hobby. We have received word from groups from Florida, Tennessee, South Carolina, Alabama, and Georgia are going to be making their way to the railroad. For those that are wondering this is private event and is NOT part of our regular public run day events. All locomotive types are welcome and for those with steam engines we only require a hydrostatic test that is less than 12 months old to operate on the railroad. Hydro tests will be available during the meet.
For those arriving on Saturday please note that a high school cross country meet will be taking place next to our property so don’t get scared with all of the school buses and people. Our entrance will be towards the end of the line of school buses and a police officer is typically patrolling our entrance giving us and others a hand during days like this. The entrance to the railroad is directly across the screen from Hawthorn Suite so if you pass it, you’ve gone too far.
We look forward to meeting everyone and if you don’t mind let us know you are coming by using the Registration button below.
