You should have heard that amazing whistle 190 tooted that weekend. It’s her original white pass railroad whistle. It however felt all backwards to me seeing this. Usually 190 handles the Wild West trains while 12 handles the rail fan train. Glad to see it went back to normal on day 2. I guess Tweetsie wanted to make it different this year. I’m not used to changes because I’m autistic and used to the same thing every year.
This is the first Summer in 63 years that it has been quite around "Roundhouse Mtn." I really miss hearing the whistles from Tweetsie and being able to see a live steam locomotive only a few miles from town.
Hate that I missed it this year, but what a wonderful video! Great to see something new (or old) to the scene to really tie things together for a great event! Can’t wait to see what they offer next year!
That's got to be number one videos I've seen in a long time and I watch a lot of videos that fog just added to the atmosphere! oh that was just awesome
Супер! Вот это пых пых! Молодцы и добрые те люди кои тратят свои силы на сохранение этих чюдесных паровозов. Спасибо большое вам ребята! Успехов вам во всех начинаниях ваших.

Nicely done! We have plans to go to Tweetsie next year, but we are not native to the area. There doesn't seem to be a very easy way to get to different shots other than on foot. Is that true? Thanks in advance!
The only places outside the park where the train can be seen are the parking lot where you can watch the train round the curve by the shop, and the trestle which can be accessed via the unpaved Leon Coffey Rd. Stay near the road to avoid trespassing on Tweetsie property. Obviously you must be on foot within the park where you can watch the trains arrive and depart from the Main Street and Hacienda areas. The park is very compact, only about 900 feet from the far end of Main Street to the far end of the Hacienda so you won't need to do very much walking.
About 2 miles of track. Steam runs every day they are open. The usual season is weekends in April, May and October, every day in the summer, and the weekends between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Heritage Weekend at the end of August is the only time both locomotives are running together.
Dont want offend anyone but for these heritage weekend the dress code should be strictly vintage or classic so people dont ruin the photography or videography standing in modern synthetic colorful Jackets with sports shoes. Amazing cloudy and foggy weather for the event
Glad to see this one since I was a few seats behind you when you rode 12 and the coach. Also, was something up with your microphone? Seemed like the whistles distorted the audio a lot no matter how far away you were.
Yeah, I accidentally hit a switch on the microphone and didn't realize it until I reviewed the footage. I fixed the problem before going to TVRM this weekend but unfortunately there wasn't anything I could do in post to save this footage.
This is one of the best videos of Tweetsie Railroad on TH-cam!
Thank you!
This is really really awesome! I feel like these get more impressive year after year! Great job as always!
Thank you! Heritage Weekend is always one of my most looked-forward-to events each year.

Tweetsie had 190 pull the railfan train back in 2008 for that year’s Railfan/Heritage Weekend as well. You can look up video of it here on TubeYou.
Excellent video! That WP&YR 5 chime is one of the best 5 chime whistles I’ve ever heard.

Sorry you couldn't make it, but I'm sure the 2020 event will be even bigger!
@@SmokyMtnSteamthe 2022 event was a big one but 2023 will be better
The shot from 14:45 and on with the fog and whistle, then emrging from the fog. Love it
I haven't seen tweetsie railroad since I was 5 or 6!!! I miss it! I hope to go back again someday...
A splendid video with some absolutely incredible shots! Brilliant!
That's got to be number one videos I've seen in a long time and I watch a lot of videos that fog just added to the atmosphere! oh that was just awesome
Thanks! I was initially really disappointed about the encroaching fog but it did end up making for some cool shots.

The 12s whistle sounds so much like the East Broad Top 15. Bring back the E.B.T.
I’ve always thought the same thing. They sound practically identical.

Really awesome video! The engines looked and sounded great
Thanks MPT!
SmokyMtnSteam you’re welcome!
I'm loving that WP&Y 5 chime. (Favorite whistle) she should definitely keep that whistle for a long time.
Once again, Great footage!
I love tweetsie railroad #190 and tweetsie railroad #12.

190 sort of sounds like a reading 6 chime

Oh my
If you weren’t deaf before, you probably are now lol
Gee, I guess there's something magical about an American steam engine. I can't put my finger on what it might be.
Love it awesome video!
Totally awesome!!!!
So how many miles of track does this narrow gauge line have and how often do they operate their steam locomotives each year?
About 2 miles of track. Steam runs every day they are open. The usual season is weekends in April, May and October, every day in the summer, and the weekends between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Heritage Weekend at the end of August is the only time both locomotives are running together.
@@SmokyMtnSteam wow

What happened to your mic?
I accidentally set it to be too sensitive and the noise from the engines completely blew it out.
Cool video
Sounds like Walt Disney World Railroad whistle at 3:06, 3:48, 3:51-3:53, 3:55, 4:16, 7:04-7:06, and 7:08-7:10
Nice!
21:40 my ears just died
