In 1868, the Central Pacific Railroad purchased four
locomotives from Schenectady Locomotive Works. They were The
Jupiter #60, The Storm #61, The Whirlwind #62 and
The Leviathan #63. In 1999, David Kloke, owner
of Kloke Construction and Kloke Locomotive Works, LLC.,
had a dream of replicating The Leviathan #63.
And so construction began. After 10 years of
work by several talented people David's dream became a reality.
The Leviathan #63 is
AMERICA'S NEWEST OPERATING STEAM LOCOMOTIVE!
