The final stop on our leaf peeping day trip tour was the Cog Railway on Mount Washington.
.
.
This is one of those “must do” tourist things that we’ve never managed to do and since we were in the area, we thought… why not?
.
.
The answer to that question was hundreds of other tourists who thought the same thing. The place was packed and there was no space available on the trains for the next 3 days without reservations.
The Cog is a strange beast.
.
.
And like no other train ride you’re ever apt to take.
.
.
So even though we couldn’t find a seat, we stayed to watch.
.
.
With a slowly dying beautiful remnant of summer.

That’s the husband taking a closer look at the bridge.

And this is the Cog.
.
.
Beginning it’s climb up the mountain at a breath taking 2.7 mph.
.
.
Here’s a shot of the unique rail line.
