Tweetsie Railroads Future Cloudy
| August 30, 2009 09:50AM |
Theres been a lot of talk about closing the Tweetsie railroad park in order to develop the land. A deal was signed a year ago to keep the park running until 2010. After that the future is very cloudy for the park. I was just wondering if it were to close what would you think would happen to the equipment. Engine #190 I believe is a WP&Y engine. Would it be returned there. Now how about the signature engine ET&WNCRR #12. This locomotive is in great condition. What about the #12 opperating with the current GTLRR #12 or is this Locomotive to big.
