Looks like the Climax project starts the begining of next year. The latest information I have received confirms that the Climax boiler we got from Sumpter Valley is from a 45 ton engine and it will fit our frame.
The Dixie's boiler arrived just in time for the season to start so we haven't gotten much done yet. At least it's on it's frame and starting to look like a locomotive again.
By the way, the Climax boiler that SV still has appears to be from a 35 ton engine, according to the information I got.
Will keep you posted
Tom
