The Polson Logging Company #70 has its first full working pressure steam test. Second fire up in 30+ years. 10/30/2010.
At this point its down to installing the valve gear, the petticoat, the boiler jacketing and a few other odds and ends.

  • whats with the rust?? or is that just the camera

  • @Strasburg1991

    what rust would that be? I dont see any rust. 

  • WOW! She is beautiful.

    Looks a lot like the 5.

    That air pump is a sound of beauty.

    The Climax's whistle sounds great on her. Perfect Whistle for a logging Mikado.

  • @Chris9017

    Chris, actually that is the 70's original whistle. a baldwin 3 chime flat top. I put it on the climax a few years back to hear what it sounded like and alot liked it so it stayed.

see all

  • the #70 sure looks great, I hope to get to see her sometime

  • @kd7tqn on the firebox door

  • @orangetrain66 Okay, I guess 17 is in the midst of it's 1472 day inspection right now?

  • sadly she's oil fired.

  • Now that this has been restored, what will they work on next, Shay 11?

  • @kd7tqn That would make sense. The whistle sounds better on her than it does on the Climax. I was hoping she would get 5's beautiful Ashton whistle, but her current whistle is beautiful on her.
