The
gallery presents photographs of steam-ups, dramatic views of small-scale
live
steam locomotives with various studies of detail and paint schemes.
The pinnacle of dramatic railroading in the eastern United
States was the cresting of the Saluda grade by Southern Railway's Carolina
Special, powered by a green and gold trimmed locomotive with a helper
on the rear. This train, which ran from Charleston, SC to
Cincinnati, OH was a typical passenger train of the steam era. It
consisted of mail and baggage cars, coaches, a diner and Pullmans.
It once boasted an observation car marked "Carolina
Special." This painting by Howard Fogg, commissioned by
Frank Fishburne, shows the train climbing the 5.3% grade up Saluda
Mountain.
