Yes I pulled that whistle and will never forget! I cried with teas of joy! The best cab ride of my life. I felt like Doc Brown in back to the future. "I always wanted to do that"!!!

[@Kleman09]

Some nice video footage! Interesting cab shots.

@isthisright84 That Whistle was Great! It sounds Very Close to 4501's Southern 3 chime Steptop! Sadly, Dollywood stopped Letting people ride in the cab, And my camera Was just along for the ride in this video. Thank You!

[@steampower2001]

Nice video Jeff! Good to 192 running again!

[@cheechchongfan97]

Al sure done good with that whistle. Engineer Gilliam also does good with it.

[@shayfan]

Nicely done, Jeff.

[@vena.sera4237]

This engineer must of volunteered or is influenced from Cass Scenic Railroad just by listening to that whistle chord he plays.

[@DanielIrwinProductions]

the two things i dont like about dollywood: They make you leave at some point. They dont give cab rides anymore :(.

[@JohnHorvath42]

Great footage.

[@Bullhead_JW]

They allow me to ride in the cab of 192's sister engine, 190, anytime want! All you have to do is go up and ask the crew if you can have a ride. I have done it almost 20 times at Tweetsie! I only have been denied for 12. (They only do rides in it during Railroad Heritage Weekend.)

[@288jh]

@RacersDream Thank you! Im Glad He Enjoyed it! I Just Posted a video From Tweetsie Railroad, Who has the Sister to 192, #190, As well as there star #12!

[@288jh]

Should be over in the next month or too. They only have two shop days a week to work inside the shop with the full force, and alot of that day is spent on repairs needed what is already operational.

[@Bullhead_JW]

And I love 12's whistle at Tweetsie! I think that 190 should have its 6-chime on it all the time. It would be so much nicer!

[@SouRwy4501Productions]

190 doesn’t have a 6-chime. It has a 6-inch diameter Crosby 3-chime.

[@Bullhead_JW]

As far as I can tell she is running now!

[@isthisright84]

that was an awesome whistle blow! don't they let anybody who asks ride in the cab? you got some great camera shots!

[@288jh]

@steampower2001 Thank You!

[@rudycarlson511]

Do you know why they stop doing cab rides at Dollywood? Insurance?

[@34peacefrog]

wowwwwwwwwwww

[@288jh]

@shayfan Thank You!

[@288jh]

Cab rides are no longer offered to the public.

[@288jh]

@cheechchongfan97 Neh, Al, And John (From my other cab ride videos) Are the Best

[@z1rz1r15]

any idea what song plays at 1:02

[@RedneckJeopardy]

Cluck Old Hen - Alison Krauss on the album Every Time You Say Goodbye - 1992

[@isthisright84]

@288jh I gotcha! yeah me and my family used to go every year until I graduated high school and i loved the train. Always loved trains. So you just asked them if they would operate your camera. Do you know the crew?

[@288jh]

@SouthernRR4501 You Don't have to be rude about it.

[@288jh]

@ALS2001 And what in the world would a K-28 be doing at Dollywood?

[@288jh]

@TheAwesomedude206 You Do realize they have 2 Operable Steam Locomotives... Right...?

[@288jh]

@Trainfanatic70 Whats "better than Tweetsie" ?

[@288jh]

@isthisright84 I know the crew Very well, And all they Really did was sit the camera on the tender. They only do this for me and another guy (That i know of) I have a video from the other Engine, #70

[@ctechie06]

How do you get a cab ride on the Dollywood RR? My Great Gran father was a fireman on the TVR. And I have always been fascinated with steam trains. Been to Dollywood MANY times but me and my dad would LOVE to ride in the engine! Who do I call we are going back before the Oct. running of Tallledaga ? Guest relations?

[@EDWARDSAful]

[@TechBrosGamingChannel]

EDWARDSAful yep

[@288jh]

@nicholasbreeden Im Doin Mighty Fine, How you doin?

[@288jh]

@SouthernRR4501 You Can't Ride in the Cab....

[@ALS2001]

Be better if there was a DRGW K-28 on the point :)

[@288jh]

[@Trainfanatic70]
