Climax locomotives on the 3 foot gauge Nome Arctic Railway
| September 12, 2020 10:19AM |
The Nome Arctic Railway used a number of Climax locomotives in addition to rod engines. I am not sure which one of these is the engine being restored in Corry, Pennsylvania (without doing some additional research). Here are a few photos that may include the engine now at Corry.
Climax Number 2
Climax Number 6 is definitely not it, since it is not a class A
The people of Nome surely enjoyed these excursion in the converted flat cars. Such excursions would be great even today.
I may post some more later, but it is far too beautiful a day to be inside at the computer this morning.
