I was just looking at Tim Bain's Klondike Mines Railway web page mentioned in today's brief (nice site by the way, Tim), and I noticed that KMR no. 3 is a Vauclain compound. I always thought the Manitou & Pike's Peak cog engines were the only ones left. Are there any more?<br>

Richard,<p>Both the KMR no. 3 and the M&PP rack engines were mentioned in a discussion of Vauclain compounds a few months back. They are thought to be the only remaining Vauclain compound steam locomotives.
