Scott And Carol Present - IAAPA 2013 - Dollywood Unvails Firechaser

[TheArchitect]

IAAPA started with a bang this year. Only 30 minutes into the show Dollywood/Gerstlauer unveiled the train for Fire Chaser Express, their new attraction for 2014!

Franz Maier, from Gerstlauer, Joel Manby, Herschend Corporate, and Craig Ross did the honors after being introduced.

A little smoke and many cheers were heard as the drape was removed. The train looks just like the renderings, and has a surprising amount of detail. Doesn't it look great?

Joel and Craig received the honor of being the first to sit in the new ride vehicle. We did get a chance to interview Franz and Craig to get a little more background about Fire Chaser Express, coming this spring to Dollywood.
