The Tennessee Rail Runners were a professional indoor football team proposed to begin play in the Ultimate Indoor Football League for its 2012 season. Based in East Ridge, Tennessee (a suburb of Chattanooga), the Rail Runners would have played their home games at Camp Jordan Arena as a member of the UIFL's new South Division, joining the Rome Rampage, Florida Tarpons, Mississippi Hound Dogs, Carolina Aviators, and Lakeland Raiders as well as the existing Eastern Kentucky Drillers and Huntington Hammer.
The Rail Runners were the second attempt at indoor football in East Ridge, following the Tennessee River Sharks which only played the 2006 season of the National Indoor Football League before folding.
