PREFACE
The reason of doing this book about the Mt. Washington Cog Railway was to be able to share some of the old stereoscopic photographs, and other old pictures in our collection. All the pictures in this book are from our own collection.
At the end of the caption on each page is a list of the number and publisher of the stereoscopic picture to assist other collectors in their search. The pictures that are not from stereoscoptic cards are listed as such.
This book is not in any way intended to be a history of the Mt. Washington Cog Railway, there are already many excellent books on the subject.
