I would like to go back but to see different parts of China. Is there a contact I could write to in order to plan another trip? Any help or information will be greatly appreciated.

]]> Comment on Mount Washington Cog Railway – Bretton Woods, New Hampshire by Richard Palmer http://www.newhampshirebeautiful.com/nh3/mount-washington-cog-railroad.html/comment-page-1/#comment-172 Richard Palmer Sun, 02 Aug 2009 02:30:24 +0000 http://www.newhampshirebeautiful.com/nh8/mount-washington-cog-railroad.html#comment-172 The railfan community and many other groups and individuals are shocked that the owners of the Mt. Washington Cog Railway have seen fit to replace their steam locomotives with diesels. The girl at the ticket window this past week also told customers that the steam locomotives will be completely replaced by the diesels by next season. This is a national treasure and its uniqueness is the fact that it has always been operated with steampower. An employee at the Conway Scenic Railroad in North Conway said he was fired by the management of the cog railway after being employed there for years for daring to speak out against the proposed changeover. I and a friend of mine traveled several hundred miles last week to ride the train, and it was advertised on the Internet that two runs still operated with steam. But when we arrived, we found that steam would not be run in the afternoon as it had been replaced by a second diesel. Many people we encountered also were very disappointed. The management of this operation is coming under severe criticism and the word is being spread quickly. Negative publicity will only do harm to what is a national treasure. Perhaps the State of New Hampshire should consider taking it over. I and many others have been there on numerous occasions, but last week will be my last. What they have done or are doing is inexcusable. Richard Palmer Syracuse, N.Y. The railfan community and many other groups and individuals are shocked that the owners of the Mt.
