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,

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.
A screw up on your part doesn't constitute an emergency on mine.

 It would be nice to have more of them too.  ;)
