Chasing dreams of a passenger rail revival in Chattanooga. Poet Corrie Lynn White, author of “Gold Hill Family Audio.” These voices - and more - on this edition of “Scenic Roots.”
More than a half century ago, the last passenger rail train left Chattanooga. Ever since, talk of restoring that service has resurfaced from time to time - as it has again now. How did we get here - and what will it take for this time to be different?
Corrie Lynn White is a poet and essayist here in Chattanooga. Her debut book of poems is titled, “Gold Hill Family Audio” - named for the town where she’s from: Gold Hill, North Carolina.
