Tweetsie Railroad Entrance - 1974


Tweetsie Railroad in Blowing Rock, N.C. is seen in 1974. Thousands from Lancaster have visited the wild west theme park since it opened in 1957. 

It features a locomotive-led train that makes a 3-mile loop around the park. 

Celebrity cowboy Fred Kirby was an icon at Tweetsie for decades. 

The park features live shows, a zoo and amusement rides. 

Fall and winter events are coming up at Tweetsie. Check the park's website for details.
