    "Where Does The Train Ride Go?

    The Winnipesaukee train runs from Meredith NH along Meredith Bay and arrives at Weirs Beach home of the MV MT Washington. After a brief stop to pick up a lot of passengers, we continue to Lakeport along "Paugus Bay". Complimentary beverages are served during the ride to group members or other food options they selected. Trains have a food service car with gifts, souvenirs, snacks, beverages as well as an onboard toilet. We arrive at the turning point of the ride in one hour (1/2 hour from Weirs) at Lakeport. There is no station here so passengers relax on board, watch the boats and enjoy the breeze. Lakeport is the only water outlet from the lake. From here water flows from here over a small dam to Winnisquam then to Silver Lake through Tilton to form the Merrimac River. Our engine uncouples from the coaches and runs up the side track to get to the other end. After we complete the coupling we head carefully north to Meredith stopping to handle passengers at Weirs Beach, Some Groups disembark here for a connection with the MV MT Washington. The train then continues on to Meredith.
