Over the last weekend of August 2016, the Tweetsie Railroad held their annual Railroad Heritage Weekend. Both of their 3ft-gauge steam locomotives were under steam for visitors, with ex-WP&YR 2-8-2 190 pulling the "Wild West Train" and ex-ET&WNC 4-6-0 12 pulling the "Tweetsie Special", which consisted of former EBT coach 5. Early on Sunday morning, both engines doubleheaded to pull a photo special through the fog, stopping for runbys at Dead Horse Trestle and the Frontier Outpost. They continued doubleheading the Wild West Train the remainder of the morning.
This was my first visit to the event since Railfan Weekend 2010, and I can't wait to return next year for 12's 100th Birthday.

I loved those runby sessions. Tweetsie Railroad may normally be a bit cheesy, but come time for Heritage Weekend and Ghost Train, they sure can put on a show with their narrow gauge locomotives.

it's nice that a former wp&yr locomotive is in use by this railroad and I have rode the white pass and Yukon route

There’s actually a few former WP&YR locos in use on various tourist railroads and theme parks. The largest users of WP&YR steam is Dollywood, with three. Those engines are 70, 71, and 192. 192 is of the same class as 190, and 70 and 71 are of the same class as 73 up in Alaska.

Boy, you really got me going, You got me so, I don't know what I'm doing. A song recorded by British Pop Group The Kinks, in case you were wondering where I got the lyrics from.

This was without a doubt the best train video I’ve ever seen. Your shots were fantastic, the whistles were awesome, and the echos! Awesome job!

@justahillbilly7777 2 года назад

The whistle heard on the 190 in this video isn't its original. The whistle it came to Tweetsie with from the White Pass & Yukon is an old Rio Grande 5 chime that can be heard in videos of the first day of the 2008 Railfan/Heritage Weekend and videos of both days of the 2019 Heritage Weekend.

This is the first tweetsie video I ever saw (3:32 what is that? it has a car horn).

Did you hear that UP 844 will be in Memphis, TN in October?

@SmokyMtnSteam 8 лет назад

It's certainly on my radar, but I highly doubt I'll be able to go see it. I'll probably have to wait for them return to the Mississippi in the summer in a few years.
