Mark -
You are right about the locomotive on the hill near Goldrush Junction. One hill had the "Choo Choo #29" engine #206 and the atop the other hill was ex-ETV&G #107. ALthough the "hills" have been gone for years, the 107 is still near Dollywood's entrance near the "main drag." Number 206 was purchased and moved to Chattanooga in 1973 when the Choo Choo Hilton was opened to revive the Terminal Station property. I remember the locomotives on the hills and locomotives at Pigeon Forge because my Dad was taking a photo of my brother and I in one of the cabs when little brother disappeared from view. He had rolled down the other side of the hill!

John,

I do not know the fireman. Could I get you permission to print the first two photos and send them to Ted as a Christmas present?

Thanks.

Hugh -

Wheels Through Time was my reason for visiting Maggie Valley. I thoroughly enjoyed WTT and chatting with Dale.

It would be my pleasure. I've got some others, just not of the crew - I'll try to make some better scans and get them up for you.

I'll be in touch.

Thanks John. I don't know who the fireman is but I am sure Ted will love the pictures.
