Duluth, Georgia--Avenue Pictures (Restoration, Short Cuts, The Player) is filming a new picture, Letters from a Wayward Son, at various locations in Georgia including Mansfield and the Southeastern Railway Museum. It stars Harry Connick, Jr. and is about a young man who settles in eastern Tennessee after being released from a Louisana prison, and his relationship with a family who helps him find a place to live and a job.

The picture is set in 1936 and a train-side shoot was held at the museum using our 1922 Pullman coach #1078.
