A Rare Look Aboard The CSX Santa Train

Nashville Steam was fortunate enough to ride aboard the 77th Annual CSX Santa Train. Join CSX trainmaster Brian Barton and country music legend Marty Stuart as the spirit of Christmas and the magic of railroading brings joy to thousands in Appalachian coal country. We hope the holiday season brings joy to you, too! #csxsantatrain #csx #railroad

Thank you, CSX, for keeping this 77-year-old tradition alive.

God bless the volunteers and the men and women of CSX railroad this brings tears to my eyes .

An absolutely wonderful, loss for words to describe tradition. It is very heartening that CSX continues to keep this truly great event alive from Clinchfield days. A great gesture to the people of the coal regions of the Southern Appalachians. Shout outs to the sponsors and volunteers.

I remember when 3985 did this as 676 27 years ago that I watched on a pentrex dvd and several scenes in another dvd from railway productions that I forgot what it’s called

i cant wait to see the day when 576 pulls the santa train with a l&n 6 chime, my best tip for her, convert her to oil its easier to fire and cheaper and better than coal

Bravo CSX and Merry Christmas!

[@timdaugherty5921]

Wow epic view at the start and I love the way you describe things! Nice, I can’t wait to film a tinytraintrack video here in Nashville (just came back from NYC), future video ideas… Subbed! Much love from Canada.
