Bob Krug	General	It was used in the movie "Coal Miner's Daughter", Gregg - perhaps you are right that it was painted for the film. As far as I know "Atlantic Central" is a fictitious railroad...	6/21/2010 6:19:19 PM

Micah-John Kershner	General	The Atlantic Central was the name of the group that owned it. They had no track, they had a steam engine and a lot of ambition. It was the Atlantic Central group who provided this engine to the Southern Railway for their steam program.	6/22/2010 11:51:14 AM
