Thank you. I agree. I love Tweetsie RR park and always enjoyed these skits that they do there. It is wonderful for family outings--young and old.

Thank You! This is how Tweetsie should be, these were the good old days. I used to really love it here. It has just gotten too silly. I wish they would realize that they could keep kids coming back longer with a script like this! If you have any more videos please post.

@1017mrc I know, I really did enjoy these cute skits that they used to do. I am glad that I was able to do a video of it. I don't have anymore on Tweetsie. Thanks for the comments.

@1017mrc When I replied to this the first time I was considering both of these as one video--but actually I have two videos on Tweetsie--Part 1 Train Robbery and Part 2 Indian Attack. It is from the same video but in 2 parts. Thanks!

Sound Like The Enging Had A Automatic Bell Ringer Back Then, It doesn't sound like that anymore

I don't know if it was automatic or not, but I loved the way the whistle sounded. I also really enjoyed riding on Tweetsie.

This is a WONDERFUL historical find. I am from the area and graduated with my masters in Public History from ASU in Boone. The history of this park is rich and it is rarely told.

@berks475 it was automatic, it still is too!

I believe that her bell was automatic. I've seen pictures of the 190 in Alaska and it looked like it was.
