Some Climax Rotary Action.

Yes, that's the Leadville Switcher all right.









And a bonus Flanger shot.

Rare views of #60, still in use as the Leadville switcher, as noted by the backup light on the tender. These surprised me, as it is obviously the tender it still has today. Never say never!

All great stuff, Chris. You have been very busy!!

I knew you would be....

It still has the old oil box style headlight, so this predates the Burlington Cuckoo Clock which it has now. Interesting stuff indeed.

Tony,

as usual with dates,   I'd say from past threads, late1920's early 1930's. Short of scanning through the newspapers....

C&S records indicate that #60 was overhauled in Denver in April, 1936. I would speculate the Cuckoo Clock headlight was put on at that time. So, prior to April, 1936.
