Mount Washington Cog Railway

Recorded September 17, 2016 The Mount Washington Cog Railway is the world's first mountain-climbing cog railway. It is the second steepest rack railway in the world, with an average grade of over 25% and a maximum grade of 37.41%. The railway is approximately 3 miles long and ascends New Hampshire's Mount Washington's western slope beginning at an elevation of approximately 2,700 feet and ending just short of the mountain's summit peak of 6,288 feet.
