On the way down, the sun came out, and sweeping vistas dominated. Our brakeman let us know that the locomotive taking our car down might have to do a little "tug and pull," to get us going, and said "get ready for the tug and pull," "you can't be standing up for the tug and pull" and I laughed a lot because I am a sad person with a juvenile sense of humor. Tug and pull. Heh. The brakeman also continued to advise us to buy shit in the gift shop and eat some bad pizza, and also to buy the souvenir photo taken by the "cogarazzi" as our trip commenced. Lizzie and I were both annoyed at the cogarazzi joke which we thought our brakeman had made up, but no, oh no, it is the real name of the overpriced photo company. Lizzie and I both bought one.
Mt. Washington Cog Railway Review: A+ for gorgeous scenery. A+ for trains, trains are fun. D- for capitalism. C+ for puns. A+ for the tug and pull. Would ride again.
