| Coming off a redboard at the Englewood, Tennessee depot, Train No.33 "The Southland", with L1 Class No.417 prepares to depart for Atlanta, while Class J3 No.1510 looks on. |
In the late 1880's, small communities were developing in McMinn County,
Tennessee. Many had a postmaster who owned a general store, or in
some instances his home also housed the post office. Investors and
developers saw a great potential for this area and felt that a railroad line
was needed between Athens and Tellico Plains, especially with the
resources of minerals and lumber in the Tellico Plains area.
On July 16, 1887, the Tellico Railroad Company was formed, and by 1888
the 22.42 mile line connecting Athens to Tellico was completed. In 1889
the Knoxville Southern Railroad Company merged with the Marietta and
North Georgia Railroad, forming the Atlanta, Knoxville, and Northern
Railroad, called the AKN, which connected Knoxville with Atlanta. When
the two lines met in McMinn county on April 14, 1893, Tellico Junction
was established. The AKN was then purchased by the Louisville and
Nashville Railroad (L&N) in 1902.
The depot at Tellico Junction was constructed by the L&N Railroad in
1905, then on January 21, 1908, Tellico Junction officially became
Englewood when the post office was established there. The depot
served this thriving little textile community for nearly 48 years until finally
on August 15, 1953, the L&N Railroad permanently discontinued the
operation and passenger service to Englewood. To mark this
monumental occasion, one last passenger train ran from Athens to
Tellico, fittingly called "Old Dusty's Last Run".
In this reminiscent scene, "WAITING ON 33", a grade crossing accident
has forced the operator at Englewood to stop Train No.33, "The
Southland". Digging in to make up for lost time, the fireman on Class L1
mountain type No.417 bids farewell to the crew on Class J3 Mike
No.1510, as she continues her trip to Atlanta.
