#3 - THE LAST CLIMAX

The Elk River Coal & Lumber Company bought the last Climax ever constructed (c/n 1692) in 1928. In the final years, the engine was used on the "Steel Train", the short train of flat cars used to lay down and then pick up track for the log trains. It spent most of it's time in the woods. The crews nicknamed the train "Cannonball". In this video we see #3 at work out on Lilly Fork and on a quick trip to Swandale for service.
