For most outdoor sports enthusiasts, going to Mt. Washington means skiing, hiking, or biking. But for some, it means going to see a beautiful natural wonder, which could also mean hiking or biking to get to the summit or driving the road to the top.
Taking a ride on the cog is yet another way to not only get to the summit but to experience the beauty of the White Mountains. It is a unique train system that celebrates 150 years of operation in 2019, giving any tourist a little extra reason to check it out.
On June 22, 2019, is the 150 Anniversary Celebration Gala, which will be an all-day event that will include historical presentations, food and drink, and fireworks. Tickets for this event are on sale now and are limited. To purchase a ticket or to get more information you can head to the Mt. Washington Cog Railway website.
There will also be a bunch of activities and festivities on July 3rd, which marks the actual 150th anniversary of the opening day of the railway. Again, a visit to the website will have all the information one could need, including daily schedules and more about the history of this unique railway.
