Trainweb.org provides ample free space for railroad-related websites. |

According to the page, he is not looking for a new server, but for someone to take over the website, does not have the time anymore. Rich C |

Well it seems like a natural for me, I'll drop him a note... I've got my own server, and 27 years of experience with good old Hillcrest #10... |

We're still finalizing all of the details, but it looks like I'll be giving the Climax website a new home and that it will continue to operate. |

Glad I could help. My thanks to RYPN and 060 Hogger, as this discussion is where I found out that the site was looking for a new home. |

Bob, Thanks also to you and RYPN. My real name is Jim Conte, and the 060 Hogger referrs to my early days at Williams Grove, when the PRR 643 was #5 and still had Phoenix Iron and Steel dust. Bill Medlin was slim, trim and racy. oo oo OOO\ |

Could your time at the Grove been during the days when the passengers rode in the tender? Hopefuly someday I can sit down and talk with you about those early days. I guess Bill has traded slim, trim and racy for rounded and streamlined. You probably know, but in case you do not, Bob also has time at Williams Grove. John Bohon |

An update on the Climaxlocomotives.com website. The migration to my server has been completed and I finally got the domain transfer finalized. The site has been offline for a week or so, as the 11/20 was a hard and fast deadline, so the old server went offline before I got the url transfer done. Things have been switched over now, and you should be able to get to the site now. I don't plan on making any changes short term, and I really don't have any major changes planned for the long term either, though I may try and add some additional photos. |

Bob, thanks for taking this on! Besides the locomotives, the sawmill section is of great interest to many! |

Bob, BZ...BZ...BZ...That's Navy radio slang for " Good Job, Well Done ! " On a rainy day recently, I read ( devoured ) the Pa logging book called Whining Saws and Squealing Flanges. The Climaxes were the favorites of the loggers, because they were the best pullers, according to that. oo oo OOO\ |
