30" Gauge Duchess Locomotive
Bruce Pryor has some photos of the 30" gauge Duchess locomotive before
being re-gauged to 36" for the White Pass & Yukon RR.
Bill Uffelman sent me this information about Duchess:
Duchess ran in British Columbia on Vancouver Island. The original RR
was the Wellington Colliery Railway. Ran from Wellington to
Departure Bay. Photos of the docks and such are in Vancouver Island
Railroads by Robert Turner, published by Golden West Books (1973).
The loco was regauged on Vancouver Island by the original owner
according to Turner later sold to WP&Y.

Works for the Serbian State Railway, also from Bruce Pryor.
