Southern 4501 - Late Autumn Steam to Summerville [4K]

On November 1st, 2025, I would venture down to the Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum in Chattanooga to chase Southern 4501 down to Summerville and back. Being that it was the day before Southern 630's final day of operation before being taken out of service for its mandatory rebuild, many rail enthusiasts from across the nation were in town, including my good buddies from up north, ‪@chendersonrailproductions704‬, ‪@DroppedSignal‬, & Bison Rail Photography. We would catch 4501 at many of the usual spots between Chattanooga and Summerville. Although, I opted for some angles I haven't done before, so I decided to skip some of the more popular spots in hopes of getting more unique footage for my video and also because of the possibility of larger-than-normal crowds at said spots. For what I was able to get, I think I did alright and I hope to get 4501 many more times before it goes down for its rebuild in 2029. I hope y'all enjoy!
