Hi, Yes that would be this same Locomotive, I believe that the buyer's name was Doug Callahan, from Kelowna, B.C. He may have also bought the steam traction motor from the Schurman Family at the same auction. Clyde had a VERY IMPRESSIVE collection of steam Donkeys,Steam farm tractors, old cars, including a Stanley Steamer, along with many other old pieces of machinery.

I was just driving around my hometown of Kelowna, BC today looking for a less busier alternate route to get to work. Anyway, driving up Longhill road I discovered a steam traction engine and a small 0-4-0T locomtive in someone's backyard. Both pieces of steam equipment appeared to be in operational condition. The locomotive that I saw looked exactly like this one; it has red bands around the domes and red around the valve gear as well. The fireman's side window frame is white. The locomotive was a bit off in the distance so it was hard to tell what it was. I'll post an update when I find out more info.

Some of the information on this locomotive is incorrect, it is in operational condition, although the boiler does not have a current certification as of June 9, 2007. I was fortunate enough to get to operate this locomotive during the final Steam Up on June 9, 2007 in Clyde Schurmans in Honor after his death. My Mother is a close friend of his Daughter Linda. The locomotive was being fired with wood at the time I was priviledged to operate it. The crew that cared for the locomotive said that the boiler was rated at 200 PSI, but because of the lack of certification, it had an 80 PSI safety valve in place.

I feel very fortunate to have been able to attend the Final Steam UP in Clyde's Honor, and to have gotten the oppurtunity to operate this Wonderful little locomotive, which was the first throttle time I had gotten on a live Steam Locomotive. The locomotive was subsequently sold at auction, and I do not know who the buyer was, or where it ended up.

I would like to Thank the Schurman Family for their Hospitality, and the oppurtunity they gave Me, it will be a Memory that I will treasure all my life. I would also like to offer my Condolences on the loss of Clyde.

     Thank You to a Wonderful Family,

               Doug O'Grady

Does anyone know if this engine has been moved?  I was by in December and it looked as if the yard was cleaned out.

This Porter 0-4-0 was built new for Manley-Moore Lumber Company of Fairfax, Washington in January of 1911. It is currently in private storage with an amazing collection of steam and early internal combustion engines. It is still steam up and run back and forth on a short section of track on special occassions
