CONWAY — Complete with new social distancing seating guidelines and even clear plastic shower curtains in its dining cars to provide separation between dining compartments due to coronavirus safety precautions, the Conway Scenic Railroad last Saturday had a successful launch of its rebranding of the Notch Train as “The Mountaineer.”

“Overall, it went really well, other than some minor tweaks on the schedule. We were very happy,” said Brian Solomon, director of marketing for Conway Scenic, which began its seasonal operations June 20 after getting the go-ahead, along with other tourist railroads, from Gov. Chris Sununu.
