wowww, very nice picture and excellent composition color !!! Fantastic!!! Good day ;)
tho i don't know what you are talking about with Shays, she's a royal beauty who served the rails well!
Great pic - I'm a little partial because I'm from West Virginia.
Missed the cue, huh? Well a Shay has pistons that go up and down and you can see them in mid engine. These turn a shaft which has bevel-toothed gears that touch the wheels and rotate them. The wheel diameter is small. This means that the engine wasn't particularly fast but was pretty dang powerful... exactly what one needs in a logging engine and that's where these guys worked... in the loggining industry. Interesting to see the wheels of the tender are also connected to the drive shaft, so this sucker must have had some pulling power for its size.
