Schmalspur Typ „C“ Climax Elektrisch (Narrow Gauge Class “C” Climax Electric)
Description: English below

Schmalspur Typ „C“ Climax mit drei Drehgestellen.

Vorbild:
Die Climax ist 1897 von der Colorado and Northwestern als Schmalspurlokomotive bestellt worden. C&N Nr. 2 war die schwerste Climax, und ihrer Zeit die einzige Schmalspurversion mit drei Drehgestellen.
1899 wurde die Lokomotive nach Skagway, Alaska als Pacific Contract Company Nr. 8 überführt. 1901 wurde die Lok von der White Pass & Yukon als Nr. 8 (später Nr. 58) übernommen, wo sie für den Bau der Bahnlinie genutzt wurde. Im Juni 1902 wurde die Schmalspur- Climax für 3.000 USD an die W. D. Hofius Gesellschaft in Seattle, Washington verkauft. Im folgenden Jahr, 1903, wurde die Lok für die White Star Holzfällergesellschaft in Whites, Washington auf Regelspur umgespurt und das hintere Drehgestell entfernt. Später operierte sie für die Maytown Holzfällergesellschaft in Maytown, Washington.

Modell:
Aster hat die Lok in zwei Versionen wiedergegeben, eine elektrische und eine Echtdampf- Version. Beide Versionen bestehen aus Messing.
Breite: 109mm
Höhe: 163mm



English

Narrow Gauge Class “C” Three Truck Climax.

Prototype:
The Climax had been ordered by the Colorado and Northwestern, Boulder, Colorado in 1897 as a narrow gauge locomotive. C&N #2 was the heaviest Climax and at that time the only narrow gauge three truck version ever built.
In 1899 the locomotive was moved to Skagway, Alaska as Pacific Contract Company #8. In 1901, it became #8 for the White Pass & Yukon (later #58), where she was used to build that railroad. Sold for $3,000, the narrow gauge Climax came to Seattle, Washington's W. D. Hofius Company in June 1902. The following year, in 1903, it was re-gauged to standard gauge and converted to two truck for the White Star Lumber Company, Whites, Washington. Later, it was operated by the Maytown Lumber Company, Maytown, Washington.

Model:
Aster reproduced the locomotive in two versions, electric and live steam. Both versions are made of brass.
