Between 1st and 5th October 2001 this steam train replaced the normal diesel Sprinter service between Fort William and Mallaig. Seen here is the start of an evening return journey that took place on Thursday 4th October. It was called 'The Ceilidh Train' because a very good accordionist and singer provided live music. The stewards served tea and coffee and there was also a well-stocked bar. Altogether Scottish hospitality at its best.

I believe these trains still run from time to time and people come from hundreds of miles away to ride on them.

This goes to show that a little engine can make a lot of noise! It is an ALCO built B-4 0-6-0 switch engine, built in August 1920, equipped with power reverse, Walschaert valve motion, piston valves, superheaters, and a 5000 gallon tender. It has two whistles, the larger one is a 6 chime and the smaller one is a 3 chime. The locomotive weighs 150,000 pounds, and it has a tractive effort of 31,200 pounds. It was built to operate at a pressure of 180 pounds per square inch and it continues to operate at that pressure today. WMSTR acquired the engine and modified it slightly; the superheaters were removed, and the footboard on the front was replaced with a boilertube "cow catcher". It also got...

Our Cass train was hauled by a Shay and a Heisler. Both are geared locomotives, designed for use with steep grades and sharp curves (which abound at Cass, a former lumber line). The Shays are the big attraction at Cass -- it has the largest collection of operating Shays in the world.
The locos are always on the downhill end of the train (for safety reasons), so they basically push the cars up Bald Mountain, then pull them down again. There are two locos going up (for speed and power), and just one coming down (when gravity helps!). The brakes on the cars are used during the descent to keep the train under careful control, especially on the switchbacks where the locomotive is at the...
