A little history - this is Heisler shop number 1591, 90 ton, built 1929 to an earlier design to use up spare parts on hand. Owners were Bostonia Coal & Clay Products Co., New Bethlehem, Pa as their #2, then Meadow River Lbr. Co., Rainelle, W. Va. their #6, and then Cass Scenic RR #6. This info from "The Heisler Locomotive 1891 - 1941", Copyright 1982, so Cass has owned this loco since before 1982.
Before the V8 SUV, there was an All Wheel Drive V2 Steam Locomotive. Looks good, sounds great, and I will bet it was a real workhorse for logging on tight corners with good power and traction. The drive gear seems a bit more elegant than the more common type of SHAY that we see on the West Coast.

i'm guessing heisler 6 isn't at the cass scenic railroad anymore it just dosen't seem the same but at least the shay's are still running just dosen't seem the same with out heisler 6
Thanks, Canon Vixia. I bought it a couple of years ago when I started selling DVD's on my website. www.passingtrain.com, the other cameras I was using didn't have the clarity I was looking for. I actually wound up going back to a number of railroads & re-shooting hours of footage which didn't look good enough to me. The views up from the roadbed in other videos and the longer version of Cass on my Volume III DVD were shot with an iPhone 5.
I set the camera to MOVIE mode. I was a cinematographer and professional photographer for 15 years. Everything I did professionally was on film so here I am 20 years later learning video. I find myself shooting about the same ratio that I shot on film, 10 to 1 which becomes problematic when a RR only runs 1 or 2 trains a day. I like to scope my locations out in advance and I prefer locations that others are reluctant to go. The shot at 4:53 is a good example, it's a 50 second clip from a 5 minute take which took me over an hour on foot to find and set up. It pays off in the long run, an engineer from the Strasburg RR bought my DVD's, in his words, "RR DVD's are everywhere but there's a quality to your shots that makes them very watchable."

I heard from one of the Durbin employees that the 2 truck climax was run improperly and it was damaged, something about one of the engineers running it like a rod locomotive. I believe it is sitting in the storage siding at Cass until it can be repaired.
These locomotives are insanely beautiful. Love watching these videos.
Thank you
Outstanding video......best I’ve seen in a long time 👍
Thank you very much
Sehr schön, diese alten "Western Dampfloks!°
Danke!
Hits every nostalgic bone in my body. Magnificent
I have never seen a train with a drive shaft powering 12 wheels like that before : )
The forest
is attractive, especially when it is shot when the train passes. thank you
This will be great with all 3 interconnected !! I remember when the river took out the tracks years ago .
Send this girl back to the cass scenic railroad its nothing without her

Yes, with the enclosed gear box these were also popular in strip mines because the gears were protected from all the dust.
Beautiful whistle

12 wheels with the kibbling rods.

All wheel drive locomotive?
Yes, all wheels are driven by the central drive shaft. On each truck one axle is gear driven and the other is driven by the side rods.
Subbed,also, what camera did you use ? The quality of the image is incredible

Harold Walters did you have to change some of the settings ?

Harold Walters nice and that engineer was right, the quality is incredible
Thank you
HOW DID IT GET THERE!?!!?
How did what get where?
Why have a piracy warning when this is free and publicly available on any device?

where is the class-B climax they always had?
I heard from one of the Durbin employees that the 2 truck climax was run improperly and it was damaged, something about one of the engineers running it like a rod locomotive. I believe it is sitting in the storage siding at Cass until it can be repaired.
All trucks driven?
yes
Только при частной собственности можно такие вещи сохранить до наших дней
Cass tender but NOT a Cass engine.. ALL of Cass's engines are SHAY'S. sidewinders!
Cass has a Heisler at least 2 years ago they did last I was there .
This IS a Cass engine. I crawled all over it a number of years ago when it was out of service awaiting repairs.
If it isn’t a Cass engine, why does former Cass engineer and shop foreman Artie Barkley give advice on how to properly run and maintain it?
@@mumfordthepitbull4581 I saw it running two years ago there is a group that has a shop next door thats restoring a Climax too
yes, this is a Cass engine, they also have a Climax
I'm sorry madam, but your crankshaft is showing.
Built for steep grades, tight curves, lousy track, and plenty of pulling power.
