This car along with its engine and caboose sit off the roadside with a historical marker detailing its history.
Per the historical marker: "The memories are captured in this exhibit: an original Tweetsie Boxcar, a Southern Caboose, and the NAR Steam Engine, which was believed to be the last active steam locomotive in the United States in commercial use."
The steam engine and caboose already have their own waymarks, so this one focuses on the boxcar for the Static Train Cars category.
