Southern Railway 630, Steam locomotive at Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum, United States.

The Southern Railway 630, a Consolidation type steam locomotive with a 2-8-0 wheel arrangement, stands at the Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum in Chattanooga.

Built in 1904 by the American Locomotive Company, this engine served the Southern Railway for 48 years before transitioning to the East Tennessee & Western North Carolina Railroad.

The locomotive represents early 20th-century American railway engineering through its regular demonstrations at the Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum, educating visitors about steam power.

Visitors can experience the Southern Railway 630 in operation during weekend excursions on the Missionary Ridge Local train route at the museum.

The locomotive underwent a complete restoration in 2011, requiring an investment of 750,000 dollars to return it to operational status.
