The Blue Ridge Scenic Railway operates scenic tourist trains along the Toccoa River on the former Marietta & North Georgia Railroad.

![[4K] Soo Line 1003 - Wisconsin Steam Train
Based in Hartford, Wisconsin, Soo Line 1003 operates on selective occasions. On the weekend of November 12-13, 2022, the locomotive was steamed up to make an appearance on the Hartford Santa Train and then a Trains Magazine photo charter the following day. 1003 shatters the otherwise quiet atmosphere of the Wisconsin farmlands with its thunderous bark as it hustles a fast-moving freight train along Wisconsin & Southern rails.
Since being restored to operation in 1996, 1003 has operated at several different railroads in Wisconsin and has made special runs to Chicago. It is one of few steam engines that can almost always be seen pulling a freight train whenever it runs. [4K] Soo Line 1003 - Wisconsin Steam Train](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/hy5B-SKR6RA/mqdefault.jpg)
