Item Description

The Mount Washington Cog Railway thrills passengers from all over the world with its dramatic ascent to the summit of the highest peak in the Northeast. Located in the heart of the majestic White Mountains of northern New Hampshire, The Cog is the first mountain-climbing cog railway in the world, and the only one currently operating in North America. With an average grade of 25% (some sections approach nearly 38%), it's also the second steepest in the world!

Motive power is primarily provided by a fleet of seven powerful biodiesel locomotives, each custom designed, built and maintained on site. With a nod to its steam heritage, the railway also continues to operate a pair of century-old, coal-fired steam engines.  

This gift certificate entitles the winning bidder to two tickets for a 2025/26 bio-deisel excursion to the summit of Mt. Washington. See details below.
