<p>The geared locomotive is important in the history of logging. It mechanized the transport of logs from forest to mill. The Willamette is but a footnote with only 33 ever built. Its impact belies the small number; it brought innovations later copied by the big players: Shay and Heisler. A useful &amp; worthy contribution to the history of rail and logging.

This book, containing over 650 photographs plus drawings and production records, is a comprehensive look at one of America's most unique and fascinating steam locomotives. Only a little over 1000 of these industrial workhorses were ever built, but those saw service all across America and overseas as well. Most Climax engines served in lumber and mining operations because of their power and ability to take sharp curves, climb steep grades, and run on light track and questionable roadbeds.
