Santa Parks Reindeer
Rides In Style
BY BILL CANNON
SPLASHDAM, VA.,-Sometime
During Christmas: What’sthisa-
bout a reindeer named Rudolph
with a red nose? He gets at least
one day off during Santa’s pre
parations for the big trip of the
year from the North Pole. That’s
the day that Old Saint Nick parks
the sleigh and reindeer and
climbs aboard the oldest operat
ing steam locomotive in the U-
nited States and makes his annual
run over the 93 miles of moun
tain railroad owned by the Clinch-
field Railroad Company between
Elkhorn City, Kentucky, and
Kingsport, Tennessee. And what
could be better? That boiler helps
keep Santa warm in the cold and
bleak mountains as he spreads
his own brand of cheer among the
children and grown-ups of the
coal mining area of southeastern
Kentucky and western Virginia.
To many of those kids in that
area, Santa Claus never has rid
den a sleigh although they have
plenty of snow around therefor
that. But the kindly old gentle
man comes as a guest of the
Clinchfield Railroad and the mer
chants of the east Tennessee town
of Kingsport who donate all the
candy, toys, and assorted good
ies for Santa to give to the folks
along the line. And he does it
now in the greatest style: on
board a steam locomotive, pulling
a train loaded with all sorts of
goodies and candy! Santa Claus
even rides the engine at times
and like all others who have ever
been around a steam locomotive,
he wants to try his hand at run
ning the engine and making the
whistle cry with glee at the moun
tain hollows, calling all the child
ren to trackside to see him and
to get some of his bounty.
The Clinchfield renovated the
Number One last year and uses
it at other times to pull color
ful and fun-filled excursions over
their mountainous and beautiful
track, but this one trip a year,
it belongs to Santa himself. He
has been making the trip on that
part of the railroad each year
since 1943 when the Clinchfield
Railroad and the merchants of
Jan. 8 will be Troy Dees and
Mrs. Ray Riley’s birthday.
Russell James and Maxie Seay
will celebrate birthdays Jan. 15
also Odis Emery.
Andrea Stone will be nine years
old Jan. 11.
Mrs. Peggy Wyatt and Ronald
Pace will observe their birthdays
Jan. 12.
Jan. 9 will be W. C. Holbert’s
birthday.
Joe Coker will observe a birth
day Jan. 11.
Ricky Campbell's birthday will
be Jan. 13.

on a cold, snowy night while you
snuggled down under the covers.
But these folks on the north end
of the Clinchfield Railroad can
watch, hear, and visit with a
steamer. . .tears roll when the
whistle blows. . .and see their
favorite old gentleman of the year
at the same time. What could be
tetter for the kids from eight to
80? Maybe we can get Santa to
park that sleigh and come this
way next year in style! Some folks
in Virginia and Kentucky would
tell you that’s the only way for
him to really do it right. And he
sure does it right up there!

REPLACEMENT FOR ‘RUDOLPH'
Kingsport figured it would be an
extra good idea to share a little
of Christmas with those along the
line, and now old Santa wouldn’t
miss the trip for the world. You
know, even Santa is little boy e-
nough to love a steam locomotive,
and he gets a big bang out of
making a trip over the twisting,
turning, tunnel-studded track up
the Big Sandy and Clinch Rivers.
And you can bet your holly ber
ries and mistletoe that Kris Krin-
gle thinks he’s in his sleigh when
he crosses the long 188 foot
high Copper Creek viaduct!
Santa uses the Clinchfield Car
100 for his headquarters - that’s
really the boss’s office car the
rest of the year, but genial Tom
Moore, general manager of the
Clinchfield, doesn’t mind Santa
having it. In fact, Mr. Moore is
right there along with Santa
Claus on the trip and is about as
free with his Ho-Ho-Ho's as old
Santa himself, and if the truth
be known, probably has a better
time than Santa Claus.
On the trip this year, Santa
and his helpers tossed over two
tons of candy and toys to child
ren alongside the track. One lit
tle girl at Clincho, Virginia,
merely a hamlet as are so many
of the towns along the Clinch-
field’s 277 miles of track,
couldn't take her eyes off of the
merry gent in the red suit, not
even when he threw her some
candy and toys from the rear
platform of the office car. She
watched him until the trainpuffed
around a curve out of sight.
Think about it! A real train,
pulled by a REAL steam locomo
tive! Kids now-a-days don’t know
