Hi Kurt,
Great work on making a small working Shay. Very impressive engineering
achievment. The models themselves pack in a lot of details too making them
look as good as they work.
One suggestion to invite people to look/comment on your model is to take
better photos. Your current photos make it very difficult to actually see the
train and thus difficult/unappealling to comment on. There’s various threads
out there discussing it and a search on ‘photographing lego’ should yield a
wealth of information.
Tim
PS. I’m writing this on Lugnet to be retro. There’s still a lot of discussion
on LEGO trains but Flickr has a lot of experienced train builders (and
inexperienced) and Eurobricks has a lot of people in their trains forum.

Thanks for the feedback Tim!
I am glad you liked the MOC!
I should have posted pics like these here?
I have only linked to “thumbnails” for posts here,
I got flack years ago for too large pics, maybe those days are over.
Also I have found that shooting black LEGO is hard (for me at least)
and I run photos through picture-it to touch-up their contrast.
I should make a better photo shooting setup... sometime.
Anyway food for thought!
thanks
kurt
