They had displays of the cog rail in the museum. The second picture is what they called the Devil's Shingle....it was used by railroad employees from 1870-1920 to descend from the summit to the base....a distance of 3.5 miles that took 3 minutes......I can't imagine riding down this after seeing how steep the railway is.
