Summary

Description

All aboard the White Mountain Central Railroad for a 30-minute 2 1/2 mile excursion with our wood-burning, steam-powered, Climax locomotive. Travel through our 1904 covered bridge across the scenic Pemigewasset River and into Wolfman’s territory.

The White Mountain Central Railroad primarily relies on the Climax locomotive, one of only three left in operation worldwide.

This Climax was built in 1920 at Corry Pennsylvania by the Climax Manufacturing Company. Patented Feb 25 1890, Builder's number 1603. It was bought brand new by the Beebe River Lumber Co. in Campton NH, about 16 miles south of here. Walter Kessler's father delivered it. They used it for a few years hailing lumber out of the Waterville Valley area. They then sold it to the East Branch and Lincoln Railroad, about a mile from here. Thet used it for a few years hauling lumber and then put it in storage where it sat until 1951, when the Clark's bought it.
