Good evening.... just spotted this thread while posting a fund-raiser ad for Calendars to help finance our (Corry RAILS) retrieval and restoration of Climax A-313 from Alaska. As far as Existing Narrow Gauge Climax... I wont get into all of the history or a lot of current details... we will have a section on our soon (within the next few weeks) to be posted Website (watch for it at corryrails.com) which will be a compilation of information, historical and current, on all 21 existing Climaxes.... and probably several replicas as well.. Check out our under construction Facebook site at "Corry RAILS" also. Here is the NG List - 9 out of 21 Climaxes remaining are Ng, (43%) with all but three being "Down Under":
