This listing of what was available in the Laconia-Gilford region gives a good idea of just how important winter tourism had become by 1939.

Winter tourism increased dramatically on weekends with the advent of the Snow Train from Boston’s North Station. Organized by the AMC and the Dartmouth Outing Club of Boston, the first train carried 197 sports to Warner on January 11, 1931.

The Snow Train was a regular winter weekend phenomenon from 1931 to World War II, first from Boston and then from New York City. Advertising paid off for towns and hotels near ski destinations along the line north.
