We spent a the Weekend in the Pisgah Natl. Forest camping at Davidson River Campground, and visited the Cradle of Forestry Nature Center....

..while there, the boys and I checked the Static Displayed Climax!....



...I read somewhere that this is the prototype Bachmann used to build the Fn3 Climax (now outta production, and YES I have got to find me one!)

Bach-Man is that the Truth?

The climax first caught my eye a few years ago when I bought my first issue of GR Mag....they were on closeout for $299, didn't have it then, still don't, but I Must find a way to obtain this engine for the NBRR!

Sorry I linked to photos, couldn't get my shed up, and was kinda pushed for time, so here you go!

there are about 52 pic posted including some pretty nice detail shots of the engine and Logging Disconnects....

Enjoy!

.....Just received a note from Webshots telling me that the photos were viewed 1421 times this week!  Wow, that is kinda a surprise.....ranking #449 of 3635 members...wow again!

Not that really means anything, but thought I'd pass it on, thanks for looking....Back to Tweetsie in 2 weeks, more from there when we get home!
