On April 7, 2002, the Southern Appalachia Railway Museum operated a charter freight train for photographers over the former Kentucky & Tennessee Railroad in Stearns, Kentucky. The line is now operated by the Big South Fork Scenic Railway (call 1-800-GO-ALONG for information). The train used K&T S-2 number 102, four gondolas, and the K&T caboose.
