Have you ever noticed a Shay looks off center when you view it from the front. The drive parts are along one side, so the boiler was shifted to help balance the locomotive and fit the layout. Do you think that design changes track wear, or is it mostly balance, or something else. Everyone is welcome to jump in. #ShayLocomotive #GearedSteam #SteamLocomotive #SteamTrains #TrainLovers #CassScenicRailroad #Railfans #Locomotive #NarrowGauge #steam | Train Lovers

Join us August 5th and 6th, 2023 as we welcome Shay No. 7 back into operation!

Lima Locomotive Works built Shay 6 in 1945, but it was quite significant over all the other 2,767 Shays built. What was the significance? #railroadhistory #americanrailroading #trains #steamlocomotives | Big Trains
