This is a limited run of 150 for this United Brass two Truck Shay (1962). The loco has a run number. The MSRP in 1962 for this loco was $40. Tom: Could you give me some ideas for a diorama using either the 4-4-2 or this two truck Shay. Stay cool and run steam....
The run number is the number of that loco out of the number produced. For example this one is 34 out of 150. Stay cool and run steam....
This is a very good shay! I have a similiar, too. Look at the bottom of http://www.westportterminal.de/newlaypic.html A friend installed a can motor, I was responsible for the smoke unit and decoder. Wolfgang
