This is MTH 20-3443-1 O Hillcrest Lumber Climax #10 with ProtoSounds 3.0. This one is the Highrail version for 3-rail track. Many of these locomotives were still operating well into the 1960s and are fondly remembered as one of the most exciting locomotives to watch.The Climax Steam Engine differed dramatically from the conventional rod-driven steam locomotive in that it was driven by a crankshaft that powered the trucks with a network of gears. The Climax bore little resemblance to other steam power. Geared engines like the Climax negotiated grades of up to 10% rather easily, and could hold the rail on track that routinely derailed many conventional locomotives. Working far from the shops, as it generally did, the Climax was rugged and easy to maintain, enduring incredible strain as it negotiated tough routes.
