It was a good gust of wind came by as he was stoking the firer as a cold front had just passed over the park. It was chilly that night in the high 20’s
@@RustyRailsProductions ik, the open air cars can be lovely, like in the spring and summer, ridin' along the rails with the smell of smoke, but as it gets into the later year, fall and winter, that vibe from spring and summer is still there, exept that its quite cold, I rode ghost train once and it was a tad chilly,
@@RustyRailsProductions that’s how Tweetsie Railroad does it Dollywood does their runs every hour I just hope they get it back up to pulling 7 cars as soon as possible
I could never be an entertainer , i mean aside from the fact i have no talent,, it takes a lot of nerve to stand up and perform in front of people and be judged
Magnificent catches inside of the train, I like it 5 stars. Hearing that amazing puffing and chufing sound is absolutely crazy. Thumbs up. Keep up the perfect work, my friend, I just liked and subscribed your channel, Greetings from Portugal to the USA.

It looks like the new train show happened when you were riding in car 3. I've been waiting to catch that show after I saw your video of it on May 19th. Hopefully it will happen soon for me.
