First Move Toward GTi Terminals in Chattanooga Property Purchase
The senate moved toward acquiring Evans property near Chattanooga for Western and Atlantic railroad use by forming a three from senate and five from house committee to review options. Governor Brown opposed the Evans tract, favoring a smaller 234 1/2 acre option at 58 500, arguing a two mile distance is immaterial for rail freight needs and urging legislative decision on land as Georgia weighs railroad property protection and shop facilities.
