Been there twice to ride the train up to Bald Knob Summit and stay in one of the Company houses for the weekend. There is a fully furnished Company caboose at the summit that Honeymooners can book for a stay. The large white building behind the Shay is the Company store with a restaurant and souvenir shop. Wonderful way to spend a weekend or longer in the woods.
