Chattanooga’s immortality as a railroad town was marked for eternity with the release of Glenn Miller’s “Chattanooga Choo Choo,” a song he recorded in 1941 for the film “Sun Valley Serenade.” The song topped the Hit Parade chart, selling more than a million copies.
A proposed Chattanooga Whiskey distillery and tasting room is expected to open along Market Street near the famed Chattanooga Choo Choo hotel, according to various media reports.
