If any local museum exhibit deserves an encore, it’s Night Train to Nashville, an in-depth celebration of the city’s often-underappreciated R&B roots. Museum curators originally debuted Night Train two decades ago with wide acclaim, including a Grammy Award for an accompanying album. The revised exhibit takes museum visitors through 25 years of R&B history in Music City, including the impact of Night Train, a groundbreaking program shot at WLAC-TV that debuted in 1964 with an all-Black cast. See the exhibit before it takes a final bow in September 2025.
