I have a question. When look on line to order tickets I notion the car have east on one end and west on the other. do you know what that means. I need to know whether to take motion sickness pills with me because I don't want to get sick riding backwards. love your video

Penny, the train goes to dillsboro in the winter, then switches and goes the opposite direction to Nantahala Gorge which is probably the prefered trip of the two. There should be enough seats so that you can move about and not have to face backwards. Really the train is quite smooth and relaxing. You can also stand between cars and get a nice breeze. Thanks!

No way that train is old from 1702 and still runs

Take a look at the video and you will see it is from the 1940's. 1702 is the assigned number to the engine when it was manufactured. Like a serial number. You can also google 1702 Steam Engine and see where it lived and operated since new.
