As scheduled, this ran from North Conway to Crawford, Notch, New Hampshire and return. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Historically CSRR ceased operations over Crawford Notch earlier in the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I used this rare late-season move over the former Maine Central Mountain Division to make some unusual photos. Bare leaf-less trees allow for views that are unobtainable during the summer and early autumn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the course of the operating season, I\u2019d made several head-end trips and Hyrail inspections of the line to look for angles. Some of the finest locations I found are a long way from public highways.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"474\"
