Picked up my new Shay on Thursday afternoon and finally got a chance to break it in a bit.  Front truck is still a bit tight but I'll get that taken care of.  Detail and sound are great.  In a week or two I'll get it lettered and weathered.  Really doesn't fit with my theme, but you folks can relate to the "gotta have one."  The 2-8-0 is one of two with DCC/sound.  Those guys run flawlessly all the time, every time and on a couple of 15" radius turns too.

That 3 Truck Shay is a real beauty. Thanks for sharing the great photos.

I love how the sand is higher then the ties, I just like that, and the steamer on the siding is very well weathered. But for me, that nice shay is the main attraction.
Happy railroading!
