Hi.I'm soon planning to buy a 55 ton 3 truck Shay .However I have few questions :

1. What are the dimensions (especially the height) ?

2.How much does it approx. weigh?

3.What controller do you use? 


I will be happy if someone lets me know the dimensions along with their exact Shay model as soon as one can.Thanks..
