Over Memorial Day Weekend 2023, the ET&WNC Railroad Historical Society held their annual convention in Johnson City, Tennessee. One of the highlights every year is a private photo special and dinner at Tweetsie Railroad in Blowing Rock, NC. This year's train consisted of ex-ET&WNC 12 pulling ex-EBT coach 5 and three of Tweetsie's open-air excursion cars. The weather over the weekend was bit of a downer, and it got so wet on Sunday that I ended up skipping the visit to the Doe River Gorge, but it was a fun time in spite of it all and I look forward to the 2024 convention.
