However, on April 12, 1862, the \u003cem id=\"mwLQ\"\u003eTexas\u003c\/em\u003e, while pulling loaded 21 freight cars from Dalton southbound towards Atlanta, was commandeered by William Allen Fuller to chase down spies, led by James J. Andrews, during the \"Great Locomotive Chase.\" Steaming in reverse after jettisoning the railcars, the \u003cem id=\"mwMQ\"\u003eTexas\u003c\/em\u003e pursued the fleeing General over 51 miles before the raiders abandoned their stolen engine two miles north of Ringgold, Georgia. The \u003cem id=\"mwNQ\"\u003eTexas'\u003c\/em\u003es engineer, Peter Bracken, towed the abandoned \u003cem id=\"mwNg\"\u003eGeneral\u003c\/em\u003e back to Adairsville, Georgia and then picked up his 12 cars and steamed into Atlanta, well behind schedule, but with good reason.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis historical print is ideal for Civil War enthusiasts, history educators, and collectors interested in detailed, factual representations of key moments in American history.
