TripAdvisor lists this attraction twice - once as Smoky Mountain Trains and once as the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad -- they are the same attraction in Bryson City, NC. So, I've reviewed this twice - as it was great -- see below: I've enjoyed other train rides (in West Virginia and Maryland) but this trip was outstanding. It was a... More
