History

Opryland Railroad opened with the park. It had three engines: Elizabeth (built for the park), Rachel, and Beatrice. After the park closed in 1997, the railway was scrapped with parts sold.

Elizabeth was later sold to Premier Parks and was moved to Six Flags AstroWorld in Houston, Texas, USA for use on 610 Limited and then moved to Six Flags Over Georgia in Austell, Georgia, USA for use on Six Flags Railroad starting in 2006 after Six Flags AstroWorld closed in 2005.

Rachel was later stored at the Tennessee Central Railroad Museum and operated in the Doe River George. It is now in storage in Grapevine, Texas, USA.

Beatrice and some of its coaches were also sold to Premier Parks and went to Six Flags AstroWorld and were eventually relocated to Six Flags America in Upper Marlboro, Maryland, USA in 2006 where they now operate on the Capital Railways.
