COG RAILWAY OFFERS SCENIC FALL VISTAS

The Mount Washington Cog Railway

Who doesn't like fall foliage? The first appearance of red, yellow or orange and an army of "leaf peepers" will take to the woods. If your plans take you to the Northeast, consider a ride on The Mount Washington Cog Railway, located six miles from Bretton Woods, NH. Billed as the world's first mountain-climbing Cog Railway, built in 1869, and using "eco-friendly, vegetable-based fuel," The Cog offers a three-hour excursion on the Northeast¹s tallest peak. "The alpine rail ride includes about one hour at the 6,288-foot summit that overlooks the dramatic fall colors of The Mount Washington Valley. Cog tickets also give passengers free admission to The Mount Washington Observatory at the summit and the Cog Museum at the base Station."

Passengers can save $5 off the Cog¹s full price tickets ($62) on the last train of the afternoon (excluding Columbus Day weekend) through November 4th, 2012. For more info visit www.thecog.com or call: 603-278-5404. -- Gerry
