As part of the official dedication of The Cog's first biodiesel engine, a contest was held in 2008 to "Name That Train".
A Pennsylvania couple who spent part of their summer vacation in New Hampshire's White Mountains were the proud winners of the "Name That Train" contest. Ruth and Larry Kirkman of Brookville, PA made the 700-mile trip north to be a part of the festivities. The name, Wajo Nanatasis, was chosen out of the 200 plus names submitted. Wajo Nanatasis is Abenaki for "Mountain Hummingbird."
