Southern Museum of Civil War and Locomotive History Gallery From the Editors of Roadside Georgia Entrance to the Southern Museum of Civil War and Locomotive History in Kennesaw, Georgia. The museum is home to extensive exhibits about the area's Civil War history and the Glover Machine Works, where many locomotives were constructed. Inside the museum, tickets are purchased at a turn-of-the-century recreation of a 4 window ticket booth. In the background is the gift shop. Inventive display of the material adds to the impact. Here, a display details the end of the Glover Locomotive Works in Marietta, Georgia This locomotive, which was returned to the Glover Works, is one of the highlights of the museum. A model of the Glover Works shows what the building looked like inside (thanks to the cutaway roof) and out. Of course, the highlight of the museum has to be The General, grand old lady of locomotives. Completely restored, the beauty of the steam-powered locomotive cannot be captured on film.
