Title: A Climax is restored...
Post by: danpickard on September 21, 2013, 07:45:43 PM
Hi all,
Thought some of the steam enthusiasts here might like some of this.  Climax 1694, one of only 4 running Climax geared loco's that remain in service, was recommissioned the other weekend at Puffing Billy.  I was up there for its first public run a took just a few pics.  Bit of an account of the day on my blog...

Cheers,
Dan

Thanks for the good pictures.   I want a cab ride.  (Two cab rides so far in the Silver Creek & Stephenson Rail Road (SC&S RR) Heisler #2)  This Climax looks in better condition.   As you all know, a better Climax is always desirable.
