Roger I like a good gun fight and the Silver plume Creek adds to the scene.

It was fun to watch. I did talk them into having the sheriff get shot.

Hokey and stupid. I avoid train rides that offer these antics.  I'm there for the railroad experience, not a bunch of local clowns showing off.

Yup, and thats why most tourist railroads dont brand things for a railroad experience.   They brand Tourist activities.    Railfans dont pay the bills.  

We have a tourist railroad in Southern Indiana that does that but only infrequently on designated dates. I can say that I have a coworker who recently took her husband, children and grandchildren to ride that train. And she had never rode a train before. They had a great time (better than if they had ridden Amtrak.) Believe me, I didn't hear that "never again" thing from them. I rode that trip down there once when I was in college years ago and thought it was very entertaining. If it gets folks to ride the train, more power to them.  Often fans rather photograph the train than buy tickets and ride.
