Chattanooga Choo Choo
Terminal Station
A historic 1909 railway station made famous by the jazz standard 'Chattanooga Choo Choo'. It now houses a hotel, restaurants and music venues.
Originally the main station of the Southern Railway, its huge brick-domed hall is well preserved. Glenn Miller's 1941 recording of 'Chattanooga Choo Choo' made the station famous across America. Today it has been converted into a hotel and mixed-use leisure complex. You can visit the hall, the vintage railcar guest rooms and the model train exhibition free of charge. In the evening there is live music and a comedy club. The station is in the Southside district, surrounded by many restaurants and craft-beer bars, about five minutes' drive from downtown.
