Did you enjoy the train ride? We ran out of time, both times we (my family) were in the area. But if we can get there again B4 I’m too decrepit...
(Shoot, I still have at least 20 places I want to visit that are not even 1/4 the distance from us as GSMNP.)
The ride was enjoyable. The equipment is old as is the road bed, so the ride was a lumbering four hour journey. Great scenery, especially along the river rafting areas. If you are older, I do recommended first class passage. The GSMRR even pulled off the required social distancing and the oil burner steam engine was interesting. The best was simply the nostalgic memories from my childhood of riding the L&N Hummingbird from Cincinnati to Memphis.
