    Prototype logging loco

    In case no one has seen it, here is a link to a Climax working loco.

    There was a two truck standard gauge Climax rebuilt south of me about 50 miles some years ago but I never had a chance to see it in operation. It is now in West Virgina I believe.

    Rich,

    The Climax is actually #1694 running on 'Puffing Billy Rails' in Victoria, Australia. It is one of the few 2'6" gauge locos ever built.

    The history of the loco maybe found here

    and the history of the line it ran on is here

      Yes, I meant to put the link in my first message but all I did is copy and paste the title.

      I posted the video in another mrr group and some old guy responds with Climax loco, diesel engine.

      He never took time to carefully listen.
