Southeastern Railway Museum
It's not a steam locomotive, but Southern E8 passenger diesel no. 6901, built in 1950, is just as beautiful a sight.
Savannah & Atlanta no. 750, a 4-6-2 light Pacific built in 1910 by ALCO, was originally built for Florida East Coast's Miami-Key West line.
This 1924 Heisler geared locomotive was built for a lumber company. It later served Campbell Limestone Company of Beverly, S.C.
Many of the museum's rail cars and engines are yet to be restored. The museum is off U.S. 23 (Buford Highway) about a mile north of Pleasant Hill Road (Interstate 85 Exit 104).
