TENN RR quit running to Fork Mountain prior to 1967. The track stayed down for several years afterward. Much of the right-of-way now has a lead track to a coal loader on it.

I do not know if this gives you the answer you want but go to www.techscribes.com/sarm/tenn RR Charter.htm or google  Tennessee Railroad Charter if the link does not work.

It gives a lot of info in a small amount of space but I am not familiar enough with the line to divine location/dates.

Do anyone know when the Tennessee Ry ran its last train to Fork Mountain?
