Since we were unable to ride the actual train, we had to check out the little Cog Railway museum while we were there. I won’t drone on about the engineering wonder it was….

But I will draw your attention to this…

I simply can not imagine flying down the mountainside on a small piece of wood.
.

And trust me, it was small. It’s hard to tell from that picture but look closely and you’ll realize big butt people need not apply.

Although that dog seems to be enjoying the ride.

A few more foliage pics from our drive home.

Bye bye Mountains.

We certainly enjoyed the show.

River's world..... 
The foliage is so beautiful that it is almost worth talking to Maine residents just to see it…

That had to be a mix of fear and fun that would get your heart pumping.

Wow, you can’t ride The Cog? Wth? And the Devils Shingle sounds like really bad rash.

It was booked up with solid reservations because it’s leaf peeping season. We’ll try some other time.
And yes, The Devil’s Shingle would be a wonderful name for an STD as well…

Small-butted chicken people also need not apply. That thing looks terrifying. The mountains, on the other hand, are stunning.

It’s a wonderful area… when seen from a comfortable car, not a rough plank of wood.

Early roller coasters may have provided the idea for the Devi’s Shingle, which would be an interesting name for a roller coaster (not that I’d be caught dead on one).).

If it came with a brake to slow the roll? Maybe.

Looks like fun but I would want something to hold on to..a handle, of sorts
