On May 17th 2021, I visited the Great Smoky Mountains Railroad doing book research. This is also the location of where they filmed the train and bus crash for the 1993 movie, “The Fugitive.” Years ago when I learned they actually did a full scale crash for the movie I always wanted to visit the site. The site is on private property and hard to see from the road above but with permission to be on the property for the day and blessing I got to see it first hand. It was pretty amazing. Don’t try and go without permission as you will be prosecuted and the area has a high tendency for snakes as well. You can see the area briefly if you ride the train though. Sylva, North Carolina.
