MWCR 2 on a "down" train, departing the summit of Mt. Washington |
Description: |
By opening / closing several valves while sitting at the summit station the locomotive is essentially converted into a large air compressor for the "down" trip. Steam pressure is kept up for a possible shove into a passing siding. |

MWCR 2 at the start of the day before picking up it's passenger coach |
Description: |
Note that there's no front coupler - there's a horizontal roller mounted to the locomotive's front buffer beam that pushes against a plate on the passenger car for the shove up the mountain. |
