Remarks & Notes |
Behold....an endangered species! In the US, there are just 3 Climax engines left among the "living". This little beauty is a 55-tonner built in 1910 for the Moore-Keppel Company in West Virginia. Today, she spends her retirement pulling a little tourist train known as "The Durbin Rocket" over a 5-mile stretch of former C&O trackage. |
