Do you remember this movie scene from The Fugitive?
Just across the Tennessee mountains near the Smoky Mountains in the tiny North Carolina community of Dillsboro, you will find the remains of Hollywood’s bus-train crash scene from this flick. We were in the Smoky’s just before Thanksgiving giving me an opportunity to capture these photos.
This 25-year old action/adventure movie is one my favorites. Harrison Ford has to prove that he’s innocence in the murder of his wife, after being sentenced to life in prison when an opportunity makes itself available for him to pursue the open & shut case against him on the outside as a fugitive of the law. I highly recommend this film, as a must see!

I have never seen these series !
It’s hard to find your blog, your link leads me to Google+ and I don’t want to subscribe to this thing !
I fixed my profile so it won’t point me to Google+. You now will see my Blogger profile. Of course, I do have the Google+ account, too. I’m not sure how I feel about that just yet. Thanks for calling this to my attention.
Why is it stuck there?
Have a fantastic week!
Happy Wordless Wednesday! My entry is here.
after all those timeeee and they still have it there?…Btw, I love your photos…cheers from Indonesia…
Fantastic movie!! definitely one of my faves for both Harrison Ford and Tommy Lee Jones. that’s so cool that you saw the crash scene. I can’t believe they just left it there though – I suppose it is a great tourist attraction.
As others have said I was a bit surprised that they could crash a train & just leave it there like that. S’pose it’s become a bit of a tourist attraction for the area. Guess when you’re a multi million dollar film production company you can do as you please & get away with it. Here in Tasmania if I was caught dumping even a single bag of rubbish somewhere like that I’d get a huge fine
Yes, I have seen the movie. I cannot believe they just left it!
I cannot help to wonder if people live in them now.
I do love that movie.
That is surprising that they left the settings behind like that.
Interesting.
Wow! I had no idea they left the train behind. I saw that movie on a date with my hubby!

The first and the last photos are my favorite!
It’s the Fugitive, really? Wow! I live about 35 miles from there. haha. Very cool!
Yes, really! Do you go see the luminaries in Dillsboro? That’s really beautiful!
Interesting to be left behind like that.
That is so cool! I do wonder why they left it?
I loved that movie! And I thought the same thing as stevebethere. Why haven’t they cleaned that up yet?
Well you would think they would have cleaned it all up buy now wouldn’t you
Just joking LOL
Have a debristastic rest of week
I love that movie! I had no idea the train was still there — cool.
What happen with that one?
Happy Wordless Wednesday! My entry is here.
Strange. Doesn’t the EPA have laws about that?! One would think!
Here’s my Wordless Wednesday.
I don’t know, but I think it could have been left on purpose per request of the city because it does drawn tourist in. Maybe not so much now, as it did initially. I think it’s really neat to see it, though.
I can’t believe they just left the remains there like that. I would have thought they would have had to clean it up before they left town.
