The new headquarters of the Grapevine Convention and Visitors Bureau and museum complex will celebrate its grand opening this Friday, May 18 from 10:00 a.m. to 1 p.m.

The 127-foot high Cotton Belt Hotel Clock Tower and two 9-foot tall glockenspiel characters, known as the "Would-Be Train Robbers" will also make their debut just before noon on Friday. These two mechanical figures will emerge from the tower each day around noon and 6 p.m. and attempt to rob a train before an argument begins and turns into a shootout. This attraction will be the first of its kind in North America.

A viewing plaza will be located just across the street, making it a prime spot to watch the action.
