Tweetsie is more than a train. It's an institution, a tradition and a legend. Mention the name "Tweetsie" throughout the South and it conjures up memories for all age groups. For children, it means a trip back into the Wild West, helping the US Marshal fight off howling renegades and would-be train robbers. It also means music and entertainment, exciting Country Fair rides and arcades, and lots of good things to eat. For adults, it means a family oriented theme park in the scenic Blue Ridge mountains, providing a day of fun and adventure for themselves and their children. For old-timers, the name stirs up nostalgia and the uncomplicated days of yesteryear...
