Reply to "Found An Incredible Historic Photo Resource"

This is a great find.  In the Southern Railway album, I recognize the unlabeled photos 245 to 231 as capturing the Southern line in Southeast Tennessee beginning at the Hiwassee River crossing at Calhoun, Tennessee heading south to Cleveland, Ooltewah, then the Missionary Ridge Tunnel where TVRM now operates, under Chattanooga's Central Ave bridge (with Lookout Mtn in background) where the mains split and Y into Southern Railway's Terminal Station in downtown Chattanooga.  I estimate early 1950's based on the level of development and the 1950 Chevrolet Yellow Cab shown in front of Terminal Station.
