[@BrentSmith-br9uq]

[@northernutahlivesteam]

@@BrentSmith-br9uq thanks Brent. It was good to see you the other day.

[@wb7dru1]

Impressive!

[@northernutahlivesteam]

Thanks for the kind comment and thanks for watching.

[@Joe-iv5ks]

I have an identical one, haven''t run it yet until I finish repairs to my workshop then rebuild my track (Tree damage).

[@northernutahlivesteam]

@@Joe-iv5ks I put temp track down on the garage floor, before we had track down on the layout.

[@Terrys-Steam-and-Bricks]

Beautiful Karl. Your Shay looks great with those log cars, especially on those large sweeping curves. 😊

[@northernutahlivesteam]

@Terrys-Steam-and-Cobi thanks Terry. Had to get those plastic logs to the mill. Then had to get the empties back to the petroleum byproducts forest for another load.

[@Terrys-Steam-and-Bricks]

@@northernutahlivesteam lol. Indeed.

[@Terrys-Steam-and-Bricks]

@@northernutahlivesteam you should get tanks cars to deliver oil from a refinery to the plastic logs factory.

[@northernutahlivesteam]

These plastic logs are all natural from the petroleum by products forest. They ain't from no factory.

[@Terrys-Steam-and-Bricks]

@@northernutahlivesteam ahhhhhh. Grown in bitumen then. 😂

Nice to see this one running. A beautiful locomotive! I think this is the colour I would have chosen, if I were to have one.

[@northernutahlivesteam]

@@ThatBIGTRAINGuy thanks Simon. I might have gotten green but I didn’t want Terry to think I was copying him. The blue boiler version is really the best.

[@ThatBIGTRAINGuy]

@@northernutahlivesteam Ah no, we don't want to imitate the Pencross Railway too much!

Running well👍

[@northernutahlivesteam]

@@davidwhite1864 thanks David. This is my first/only gas engine. It took me a few tries to learn her idiosyncrasies.

[@davidwhite1864]

@@northernutahlivesteam Yeah theres a bit more to it than it would appear and theyre all a little different. Great thing about geared engines is they move at a realistic speed. Im sure she wont be your last gas burner.
