Some views from the Great Smokey Mts RR train.
The water level in Fontana Lake in the gorge was way down on purpose for dam maintenance. We were told it will be refilled in May for the summer. Then the floating cabins will float.
The train makes a stop where the engine is switched to the other end. There I bought a shirt at the NOC Outfitters store by Silvermine Creek and the Appalachian Trail. The shirt was labeled my size but when I tried it on later found that it would cover two of me. I use it as a night gown.
