Initially named the Night White Mountains Express, it was the most exclusive of seasonal trains serving the White Mountains. It was briefly an all-Pullman service before World War II. After the war, coaches were added and it became a weekend only service. While it offered mostly open section sleeping compartments immediately after the war, it transitioned to mostly private rooms to better match the tastes of its exclusive clientele. It used heavyweight sleeping cars and even offered Pullman through coaches to Washington, DC. Its 1955 consist offered berths, roomettes, double roomettes and bedrooms and a buffet-lounge car.
