Name that train contest
When I was a kid I rode on a cog railway. I loved it because the steep angle made it so that you could stand up, lean forward real far, and not fall over. I remember standing, leaning, and not falling. But I forget the name of the railroad.
I suppose it's possible that it was the Mount Washington Cog Railway. There can't be that many cog railways within driving distance of New York so I'd say there's a decent chance.
Anyway, that's why this contest caught my eye. You submit a name the new biodiesel engine and if they go with your name, you win.
Names for the new locomotive can be entered at the Cog's website - www.thecog.com. All entries must be received by Aug. 29 and the winner will be invited to ride the new biodesisel train and join Governor and Dr. Lynch at the dedication of the locomotive on Sept. 6, 2008.I didn't actually see a spot on the website to submit and I may just enter this one, so I've got an email in to see if they can help us. Check the comments if there are any to see if we have a place to submit names. If you see the submission area on the website, let us know! Posted by James Trotta at August 25, 2008 3:55 PM
