Shawnigan Lake Lumber Co. Climax - 2 truck No. 2

Posted by: Matthew Gardner on Mar 3, 2022 @ 12:03:19
There is a huge mystery surrounding the individual whom restored this locomotive. Granger Taylor was a very eccentric man whom loved to tinker with and restore old machines. He did however, begin to behave strangely saying he was making contact with aliens and trying to learn how their spacecrafts worked. He dissapeared one night never to be seen or heard from again saying he was going to meet the alien in person. Nobody knows what happened to him, but there are theories as to what happened.

Canadian National Railway 2-10-2 No. 4190

Posted by: Matthew Gardner on Mar 3, 2022 @ 11:03:32
This class of engine had the highest tractive effort rating of any locomotive in all of Canada. These were used in local transfer service in city areas. They basically did the jobs the later large centercab diesel locomotives offered by a few makers like Baldwin were made for. They also would have made very good hump switchers, helpers, and the like.

Pittsburgh & Lake Erie RR 4-6-0 No. 78

Posted by: Matthew Gardner on Mar 3, 2022 @ 11:03:53
This is the only surviving steam loco of the Pittsburg & Lake Erie Railway. It would be appropriate to see it come home to the states. More specifically, PA. However, the Canadian Railway Museum would probably never let go of it, and anybody here other than the Age Of Steam Roundhouse or the Strasburg Railroad would be in a financial position to do such a transaction. And as such, the Strasburg would not want that engine, as it is probably too small for them, and the Age Of Steam Museum has too many engines already. Besides, the Canadian Museum is caring for it as much as can be done. They do so for all their equipment except for the 2-4-0 which is used as their billboard.
