As so often happens, while looking for something else I came across this, a television short on the Tweetsie and the people who kept her running, from the early 1970s:

The clip was done in 1980, 23 years after the park opened in 1957.

Resurrecting this dormant thread to include a little video of the Tweetsie as it was being saved from the scrap man.

The video is from a series of films called "Industry on Parade"
