    From back in the good old days when the ex T&NO MK-5 was running on the Hill Country Flyer north of Austin, Texas. One of these days they will have her all back together and we can ride behind again.

    Climax Manufacturing Co. was in Corry, PA, so there's a Climax locomotive in the Pa. RR Museum. But it's just painted black, no number or roadname. Forgot to read the display board.​
