Access Issue: Avoid walking on the train tracks whenever possible.
Details
The Conway Scenic Railroad will be active in Crawford Notch this winter. It is critically important for climbers to avoid walking on the train tracks whenever possible. Please do not leave packs, gear, or ropes on or near the rails, and avoid belaying near the tracks. Be prepared for trains to pass at any time, all winter.
The right of way for the railroad extends 50 feet on either side of the tracks, so while walking next to the tracks is likely safer, from the point of view of the railway it does not necessarily provide a solution. Ideally climbers should avoid being near the tracks whenever possible. We're requesting that climbers use alternative approach trails when it makes sense, such as in the case of the Frankenstein Cliff trail. If you do need to use the tracks, we want people to be aware of the situation, and to try not to spend excess time on them.

Description
To the right of Read Between the Lines are a few routes. Spring Fling, a cool, obvious chimney/offwidth line originally lead on pins by Mahoney in the early 2000's (what Matt Ritter calls the "Golden Era" of winter climbing in New England). Now equipped with a few bolts and a pin, the route goes dry but worth looking at after a hard rain/freeze. Who knows on grades with stuff like this but be prepared to try hard.
