Rider In the Sky, a Folk Western group that I have been a fan of for the past thirty years, did an album dedicated to the Tweetsie RR.
I had visited family back in North Carolina back in 95, wish I would have gone out of my way to visit it while I was out there then. Instead, I made stops at the Spencer Shops, Virginia RR Museum and Scranton, PA. It was pretty cool to see a Big Boy in Pennsylvania, glad that museums have wish lists and can preserve some of these locomotives that never made it into their neck of the woods originally, Steamtown really is a great preservation museum.

Still a Student,
