Abstract:

The Alexander Chapter of the National Railway Historical Society, based in Taylorsville, restores and runs train cars. One train, nicknamed the June Bug, is taken by the group all over the country, from New Orleans to Disney World to Boston. In September, the chapter will host a run open to the public using the Skyland Steam Special, another of its trains, from Hickory to Asheville.
