A good suggestion Michael

This might be something for all of us going on the train Saturday to consider for a drive after the train ride ends.
The train will arrive back in Bryson city at 1:30 pm
We could leave and take another short and scenic drive to Clingmans Dome
It is a 36 mile / 1 hour scenic drive from Bryson City through part of the Smokey Mountain National Park

Then the return trip back to the lodge is 66 miles in 1.5 hours which will put us back to the lodge approximately by 5pm with a 1 hour stop at Clingman's Dome
