Title: Silver Dollar City Railroad
Post by: dkparks on September 02, 2008, 08:17:16 AM
Hey all, I have been reading the forums for quite a while now but just never registered. Sorry, I should have been more interactive before.

I do have a question and wonder if anyone knows the answer. During the train robbery, Alfie and Ralfie usually do get some gold, silver, copper or dollars from the train. What do they do with that money? Is it donated to local charities like, I believe I read, the lost and found after a period of time?

That's a tip.....


:D


Actually the lost and found is auctioned off at the end of the season.  Not sure where the funds go.

^^I always viewed it as a tip.  Ever since I was five or six years old I always give them a penny, nickel, or dime.  They're very appreciative.  I never thought about them giving it to charity.

Can anyone get in on the Auction or do you have to work there?

I had once found a photo online of the inside of the old building where the actors stayed until the skit started, and the info with it said that they donate the money they receive to charity. Can't for the life of me remember what website I found it on...

^That's cool.  I never thought about them giving the money to charity.  That's a good idea, and I'm glad that they do.

They donate it to the Human Fund.   :)
