Cass Scenic Railroad - A Climax On The Greenbrier Express

On August 15th I decided to make a last minute trip up to Cass to chase the Greenbrier Express from Cass to Durbin. With much luck the Climax made its first appearance on the Greenbrier Express while I was there! This is the Climax's first official regular excursion and it was awesome to see it. With loud stack talk, the echoing of the whistle, along with the mountains, and river it provided for a wonderful day for all who got to see this historical run. After chasing the Climax we decided to head up to Gum Road Crossing and catch Shay 11 wearing a original Canadian 4 Chime whistle on its way back down to Cass as well as caught it coming into the station and going back to the shops. As always thanks for watching!!

It's wonderful hear and see this old gal running my grandfather fired one back in 1904 on the White Deer and logenton in Pa.

It's good to see them finally pulling excursions with #9. I had wondered when and if they were going to.

Magnificent catches of the steam locomotive coming by and pass, I like it 5 stars.
Thumbs up.
Hearing that amazing puffing and chufing sound and cars coming through is absolutely crazy.
Keep up the perfect work, my friend, i just liked and subscribed your channel, Greetings from Portugal to the USA.

Is good to have a day here online riding with yall. Be about 48 years since I first started riding Cass long ago as a teen behind number two to I think Spruce. Your brakies taught me about downgrade braking the way back down. I applied some of that to trucking time later in the mountains.

Am in hospice now ~ a certain amount of time but until that day I visit here online and ride along. The whistle on 11 sounds wonderful.

I believe the Climax did well today too. But wonder about the running gear on that second pax car under there. Then again they have people to keep a eye on it.

What an awesome video, i love the 4 chime on shay 11 it sounds so awesome and I hope to ride behind climax 9 someday because how incredible it is.

Nice to see a Climax going to Durban once again. I hope number 3 gets repaired soon.

I went to the Cass scenic railroad in 2004 and remember when they were overhauling this locomotive. The whistle that is on it in this video was the same whistle that was on the heisler locomotive that double headed the trip to Bald Knob with Shay #2 that i took. Western Maryland Shay #6 was doing the Whitaker station trips

Nice video! Surprised to see the Climax pulling the greenbrier express!

Nice looking Climax and caboose. Hopefully the coaches will receive some fresh paint and proper lettering soon.

Beautiful train ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ I never seen train special beautiful like this God bless you and protect you

[chucksizemore]

Wow that is so cool I just got back from Pocahontas County I can’t believe I missed it 😂

[melmen]

I think the whistle that the climax is wearing is the same 3 chime that shay 3 wore during the 80s and early 90s.

[anthonycook]

This will be a good one. I saw some pictures of it the day before when it went for a shakedown run they used to. The 80 ton to haul it back

[billyrueckert]

Very nice! Are they still looking into getting a boiler for 604? I see it out there on the dead line.
