Santa ... Shannon 160 Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 BTW, I did not get mine as a gift from TCD or Lou. I didn't want anyone to think I was an ungrateful bum! I got mine the old fashioned way... crawling on hands and knees over gravel ballast through brambles. I hear normal people spend their free time on vacation at pools or in hammocks!

Retired and Happy (Ken) 101 Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 Santa, If I tried that, I would come upon an unfriendly snake. I gladly got ours the new-fashioned way....from a couple of Fiends. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Doggmeat-aka Todd 3 Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 Welcome, Red. FWRR spikes are a Fiend thing. If you are an active member here and let it be known that you will be visiting the Fort, the Spike fairy is likely to pay you a visit and spike you. Being an active member helps a lot. TCDI never got one from you. I had to be the weird one and spike the spiker...lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bill 1 Posted April 9, 2016 Report Share Posted April 9, 2016 I want to be visited by the spike fairy!!!! Just found this page, but I'm a life-long Disney nut. Been coming to Ft. Wilderness since it was open. And have found memories of riding the train. Been there multiple (ok, a TON) of times looking for a spike...trudging through the brush...to no avail. Heading back to the Fort next week, would LOVE a visit from the fairy--been a dream of mine to have one!!! Bill Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WrigleysWagon 32 Posted April 9, 2016 Report Share Posted April 9, 2016 This is really cool! I never knew about this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bill 1 Posted April 10, 2016 Report Share Posted April 10, 2016 So, is this "spike fairy" for real?? Cause I'm like obsessed with getting one!! One of the fondest memories of Ft. Wilderness is riding that train and I would love to have one. Tried numerous times to find one on my own with no luck, and a few scratches! Coming in Wednesday for a couple of weeks. PLEASE come visit me spike fairy!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted April 10, 2016 Report Share Posted April 10, 2016 There are a couple members of this board that have a supply of Ft. Wilderness RR spikes. There is a thread in the community board called "Post your site number" or something like that. When you arrive at the Fort, get on that thread and post your site number. If you do that you never know..... You can also order a Fort Fiends sign at the store. I know your trip is soon, but you could PM AuburnJen to see if she could possibly get you a sign on the 28th when she gets to the Fort. BradyBzLyn...Mo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bill 1 Posted April 10, 2016 Report Share Posted April 10, 2016 Thanks Carol! I will surely do that!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Would it be because we live in Canada? I'm ok with paying the extra shipping... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

hunter99 7 Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 So, is there a good location at the fort to look for these? I am more than willing to go on a scavenger hunt. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
