A cog is defined as “one of a series of teeth, as on the rimof a wheel or gear, whose engagement transmits successivemotive force to a corresponding wheel or gear.” The CogRailway travels 2 .75 miles up to the 6,288 ft. (1,916 m) sum-mit of Mount Washington in New Hampshire on just such asystem. From this peak on a clear day, the view includes thevalleys of New Hampshire, Maine and Vermont, north intoCanada and east to the Atlantic Ocean.

The Cog Railway was the dream of Sylvester Marsh who,in 1852, became lost trying to climb to the summit of MountWashington. He knew that there had to be a better way forpeople to reach the peak of the highest mountain in the north-east. When he returned from his adventure, he started work-ing on his plan to build the world’s first mountain climbingrailway.

C.N. Wood’s Woburn Service Department Doubles in Size C.N. Wood recently doubled the shop

space at its Woburn branch with a new10,000 sq.-ft. building that houses six largeservice bays, including one dedicated toaccommodating compressed-natural gasvehicles. It also will house welding/fabri-cation and detail areas. “This new building will streamline our

processes, allowing us to move equipmentin and out more efficiently,” said ServiceManager Mark Whelan. “In each large bay,we can work on two or more pieces ofequipment, depending on their sizes, andwe can drive machines straight in and out.We can bring more machinery out of theelements and into a controlled environ-ment. It really gives us a lot more capacity.”C.N. Wood President Paula Bernard noted that the added

capacity is important as service-related work continues togrow. “The markets have been up for the past couple of years,

and that’s a good sign, as it means companies’ have morework and are putting more hours on their machines,” shesaid. “With that comes an increased demand for maintenanceand repairs, so it was necessary for us to have a larger spaceto properly take care of our customers’ needs.”

Practical and EfficientWhelan said the new ship space can handle practically any

size machine C.N. Wood carries. C.N. Wood took energy

efficiency into account, as well, in the new building, whichuses gas-fired infrared heat and efficient lighting elements.

(This story also can be found on Construction EquipmentGuide’s Web site at www.constructionequipmentguide.com.)

This 10-ton (9 t) overhead crane has a 22-ft. (6.7 m)hook height, so working on larger machine compo-nents is not an issue.

This separately enclosed bay was built to accommo-date compressed-natural-gas vehicles.Mark Whelan, service manager — C.N. Wood.

NEW ENGLAND EDitioN

C.N. Wood’s new 10,000-sq.-ft. facility has created a larger, moreefficient work environment.


A Unique DesignThe grade that the train travels up the tracks is extraordi-

nary. On average, the train is traveling a 25 percent grade,and at times as much as a 37 percent grade, thus the need forengines to be designed that can operate at that severe of agrade.

The Cog Railway is not powered by the steam engineturning its wheels on the track like conventional trains. Withthe slope of the mountain and the degree of incline, tradi-tional train design would never work.

On this train in the center of its axis there is a large cog,which is turned by the power from the train’s engine.The train travels up the mountain on what initiallylooks like a traditional railroad track, except that in thecenter of the track lies what looks like a giant bicyclechain that is broken and stretched out dead center theentire length of the track. It is this giant bicycle chainthat the cog in the center of the axle of the train actu-ally makes contact with and climbs up the mountain

A Momentous TaskTo build the railway, equipment and materials had

to be hauled by hand and by oxen nearly 30 miles, attimes through thick woods. Despite all of the obsta-cles, on July 3, 1869, a uniquely designed enginecalled “Old Peppersass” pulled the first cog driven

train up the summit of Mount Washington. Peopleflocked from across the eastern United States toenjoy this unique tourist attraction.

Throughout the years the Cog Railway hasremained one of New Hampshire’s largest touristattractions; Last year 92,000 people took the train.

Mount Washington’s Cog Railway has a deep-rooted history of innovation and fabrication. The ear-liest engines, with their unique design, including thecog drive system and a steam engine that needed tobe designed at a dramatic angle in order to functionproperly during the ascent and descent of themountain, were engineered and fabricated by Cog

Railway employees.Ever sensitive to the environment that it operates in, the

Cog Railway has made every effort to leave the smallestenvironmental footprint it can on Mount Washington. Overthe years the employees have incorporated biodiesel enginesand solar power along with onboard computing, making theCog Railway a leader in cutting edge technology and envi-ronmental sensitivity.

Facing Challenges To accommodate the increased demand for passenger

capacity design, improvements are constantly being added,

including a fourth new rail switch, which is currently beingbuilt at the summit (this switch will be powered off the grid.) Working at the summit of Mount Washington brings with

it its own unique challenges. Mount Washington is the highest peak in the Northeastern

United States at 6,288 ft (1,917 m) and the most prominentmountain east of the Mississippi River. It is famous for dan-gerously erratic weather, which at the top of the mountain isso extreme that the frost never leaves much more than thefirst foot of the ground surface; the next several feet arefrozen year-round. Mount Washington is consistently one of the coldest,

windiest areas in the northeast. Temperatures are well belowzero on a daily basis for six months out of the year and winds

from 70 to 110 mph are not unusual.Heavy snowfall is the expected from October through

April and it is not unusual for some amount of snow to fallin the dead of summer.To learn how to construct in such inclement weather one

of the cog’s engineers visited the Alaska DOT for advice.The landscape surface is covered with rocks 2- to 20-ft. (.6to 6 m) diameter. To clear an area for the construction of thenew switch it was decided that bringing an excavator to thetop of the mountain equipped with a hydraulic hammer,bucket and thumb would be the best way to clear the rockyterrain.But, how do you get an excavator to the peak of the high-

est mountain in the northeast? By train, of course. In shopping for an excavator, the size of machine was dic-

tated by the pulling capacity of the train engine. A 30,000 lb.(13,608 kg) Doosan DX140LCR fit the bill.A special flat was constructed to haul the excavator by

Cog Railway 1.2 mi. above sea level. Because of the limitedsized excavator that could be hauled to the summit, a thumband a breaker would not be able to handle the moving of thelarge rocks so the Doosan is being equipped with a 5,000 ft.lb. hammer in addition to the Geith coupler and bucket. According to Gareth Slattery, operations manager of Cog

Railway, “When we have construction challenges here at therailway they are always a little more complicated than theymay at first seem. Over the years I have found that my best

Working at Mount Washington Presents Unique Challenges

Despite the presence of rails, a large cog wheel actu-ally follows a rack, which resembles a laid out bicyclechain and climbs the severe incline of the mountain.

This switch is similar to the switch at the peak of the mountain that the Doosan excavator is being used to build.
