Steam O Rama! - Flying Scotsman and the Southern Railway Steam Program

Fifty years ago, a truly once in a lifetime gathering of steam was staged.

We recreate "Steam O Rama", originally operated on November 2, 1969. On this day, the "Flying Scotsman" made its appearance on the Southern Railway during its tour of the United States. Southern, only a few years into its steam program, went all out for hosting their foreign guest. Savannah & Atlanta 4-6-2 750 and Southern Railway 2-8-2 4501 also operated specials between Atlanta and Birmingham. All three trains met in Anniston for a special gathering. To this day, a plaque remains at Anniston, denoting the day that three steam engines were brought together.
