MWCR 9, Waumbek |
| Description: |
The Cog advertises that the 9:00 a.m. departure will be powered by an historic steam locomotive. On July 23, MWCR #9, Waumbek, drew the duty. Here it is after the run, being kept hot in case an extra section needed to be run in the afternoon. Otherwise, most of the trains nowadays are being powered by the new biodiesel interlopers. |

MWCR M3 left side view |
| Description: |
Looks like a bank of heat exchangers along the left side of the biodiesel locomotive. I assume it's for dynamic braking on the"down" trip, and it's placed on the left side because all passenger boarding and disembarking is from the right side of the train. |

| Description: |
Ted and I met for a hike in the Presidential Range, but before driving to the trailhead, we met at the Cog base station to see the first train of the day depart under steam. This was Ted's first time to see the Cog. |

| Description: |
That horizontal cylinder above the front drive wheel is a feedwater heater, which takes the water from the tender's axle pump and pre-heats it with exhaust before it is injected into the boiler. |
