On the summit
Title:  On the summit
Description:  Our train sits at the summit station, 6,288 ft. above sea level. A clear, sunny day like this is unusual at the top of Mt. Washington, whose winter weather rivals that of Antartica, with wind chill temps of minus 100F not uncommon.

MWCR 9, Waumbek
Title:  MWCR 9, Waumbek
Description:  The Cog advertises that the 9:00 a.m. departure will be powered by an historic steam locomotive. On July 23, MWCR #9, Waumbek, drew the duty. Here it is after the run, being kept hot in case an extra section needed to be run in the afternoon. Otherwise, most of the trains nowadays are being powered by the new biodiesel interlopers.

Description:  This was the money Ihot of the day, and the one that I hiked three and a half hours in to get. The steepest part of the Mt Washington Cog Railway (37.4% gradient), and arguably the most photogenic spot along the cog railway's route.

Title:  MWCR 9 descending Mt Washingtoq
Description:  The engineer saw me taking photos up on the hillside and recognized me from the day before. He gave a friendly toot on the whistle - also a photogenic bonus steam plume for a "down" train. That's Mount Clay in the upper right of the photo. I had climbed up that long ridgeline up to Mt Clay earlier in the morning to gain my hoped-for photo spot at Jacobs Ladder
