Rocky Mount has had a history of exclusive trains, with "The Champion" train running from New York to Florida in 1939. The CSX and The Wall are some other competitors for the rich history of Rocky Mount.

With the help of local artists, the locomotive story of Rocky Mount is being painted. They are really excited to paint the whole designed painting. According to the painters, they feel like the train is unstoppable and will pass through any obstacle.
