Will Scott Baptist
Gets Old Train Bell
Steam Locomotives disappeared
from the tracks of the Louisville
md Nashville Railroad almost a
year ago, but there is still visable
?and audible ? evidence of their
existence in many an L & N served
community.
Just recently the L. & N. do
nated six engine bells, removed
from scrapped locomotives, to as
many churches along its lines. This
was a continuation of a practice
inaugurated several years ago and
in all, the L & N. has now donat
ed a total of 370 such engine bells
to small on-line churches operat
ing with limited budgets
The Will Scott Baptist Church
here was among the six recently
receiving bells.
As practically all of its steam
engines have now been scrapped,
and all bells assigned, the rail
road is forced to conclude its pro
gram of such donations.
