HistoryFounded and owned by Neil Underwood,[1] Silver Lake Railroad opened on July 7, 2007, operating from Madison Station (aka Silver Lake Depot) in the town of Madison. This station was a stop for the Boston and Maine Railroad from 1872 until passenger service ended on the line in 1961. The station has been restored over the period from 2002-2007, and much of its original features are intact. The original order boards and stationmaster office were undisturbed, as well as the interior of the station (now housing the Silver Lake post office), which displays its original varnished woodwork. It is currently closed for the 2018 season. EquipmentSilver Lake Railroad's rolling and display stock currently at the station:
RouteThe railroad operates on the historic Conway Branch (abandoned in October 1972), traveling northward past a chain of ponds in Madison, New Hampshire. Rides are approximately 40 minutes, aboard two {{convert|24|ft|m|adj=mid|-long}} open-air passenger cars powered by a Fairmont A6 railcar. The line passes a series of lily ponds and beaver ponds which have beaver lodges and dams in them. Scenery includes the Mt. Washington Valley and views of the White Mountains. Wildlife that can be seen along the line include but are not limited to moose, bears, deer, and birds. Silver Lake Railroad is open weekends only, July through October, weather permitting. See also
