The Chattanooga Choo-Choos were a professional baseball team based in Chattanooga, Tennessee. The organization operated in the Negro Southern League, a minor league division of the Negro Major Leagues and fielded a team from 1940 until 1946. The Choo-Choos played their home games at Engel Stadium.^[1] The franchise is perhaps best known because they were the first baseball organization to employ Willie Mays.^[2]
