Tweetsie Railroad Heritage Weekend 2022
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
After a three-year absence, I finally made it to another Tweetsie Railroad Heritage Weekend on August 27 & 28, 2022. As in previous years, this event features both of the park's steam locomotives under steam and pulling trains around the mountain, with 190 on the regular "Wild West Train" and 12 pulling a historic mixed consist of a former Rio Grande flatcar and recently repainted East Broad Top coach 5. On Saturday night, the two locomotives and coach 5 would be coupled to the front of the main consist for a sunset photo special, with runbys as usual at Dead Horse Trestle and the Frontier Outpost. Not only was this the first time the engines were doubleheaded on a photo special in 6 years, this was the first opportunity ever to see the 6-car train behind both engines. The next morning, the coach was removed and the two locomotives doubleheaded the Wild West Train. As always I had a great time seeing narrow gauge steam at work and hanging out with my fellow foamers, and can't wait for Railroad Heritage Weekend 2023!

When did they get a flat car that was from the rio grande and a coach from EBT?

They got the flatcar in 2019, while I believe the coach has been with the park since it opened in 1957. Don’t quote me on that though

@@mattdotsonrailfanproductio266 you are correct about the coach. It was even with the #12 during her brief stint at the Shanandoah Central in the mid-1950s.
if they only could put em on a real railroad
My parents took me to Tweetsie Railroad several times when I was a child. This was in the mid 60's to early 70's. It is still a nice place but the gunfight show put on along the train route has been greatly toned down. Now it is more a clown show. Not very entertaining at all. The train ride is nice but the show sucks. The town has a lot of nice gift shops and places to eat.
