Going full-bore

Going full-bore por Kevin Madore Por Flickr: Just moments after leaving the platform at Marshfield Station, the Mt. Washington Cog Raiiway's noontime steam trip is going full-bore up the steep grade above the Ammonoosuc River Bridge. The fireman has the locomotive at maximum working pressure, as evidenced by the plume from the safety valve atop the steam dome. Just aft of the steam dome, another billowing plume can be seen from the locomotive's side-stack exhaust. These little cog locomotives don't have conventional valve gear, so once the locomotive is up to speed, there's no way for the engineer to adjust the cut-off, meaning that back-pressure from exhaust steam being pushed out of the cylinders is beginning to make it difficult for the engine to produce maximum power. On these engines, that problem is alleviated by giving some of that steam another way to escape the cylinders, by diverting exhaust steam away from the pipes to the smokebox and out through a dedicated exhaust pipe above the cab. This diversion process is called side-stack, and the exhaust pipe is known as a side-stack exhaust.

Switching out "The Deuce"

Switching out "The Deuce" por Kevin Madore Por Flickr: In a cold rain, Mt. Washington Cog Railway Engineman Art Poltrack utilizes the railway's transfer table adjacent to the old shop building to switch Mt. Washington Railway Co. Locomotive #2 from the main line to the shop track, where she will be parked for the night and allowed to cool down. In the cab, on the throttle, is Cog Railway Engineman Mark "Cookie" Sodergren. This image was captured in May of 2023 on a solemn occasion. Earlier in the day, both of the line's active steam locomotives made the journey up the hill to Long Trestle in a driving snowstorm, to scatter the remains of long-time Cog Engineman Joe Eggleston, who perished in a tragic hiking accident on Mt. Willard in December of 2022.

Ski Train

Ski Train por Joe McMillan Por Flickr: At least once a season, we try to ride the Winter Park Express (WPE) ski train from Denver to the Winter Park Resort at the west portal of the Moffat Tunnel. On Friday, February 16, 2024, Steve Patterson, John Charles, and I boarded a packed WPE for the two-hour trip to ski country. In this scene, the WPE has arrived at Winter Park on time and skiers are busy unloading and heading for the slopes. The unloading process took about 10 minutes, which allowed us time to walk to the head end for a few snaps. There was no shortage of snow at the resort–––photo by Joe McMillan with Steve Patterson and John Charles.
