Here are some pictures to my new Shay #5

Shay #5 is modeled after Shay #5 at Cass Scenic Railroad, Cass West Virginia
She is one of the oldest running shay engines, and still carries tourist
half way up a mountain.

I got to see her in person, did not get to ride her though. I did ride her
sister #11 all the way to the top of the mountain. Boy that was fun.

(...) Wonderful MOC, Lewis-- great attention to details! As I was pouring over your pics, it struck me that you have cleverly built past minifig scale to around 1:29. Though you are 8 wide, Shays were a little over 9 feet wide. Also, Shays ran on (...) (22 years ago, 9-Nov-02, to lugnet.trains)
