This is a live steam shay being built by a member of the Golden Horseshoe Live Steam club. He had it on display at the Toronto Train show.
He figures another two years to complete this maginificent loco.

7 1/4, eh? Where is he living now? Does he enjoy traveling?

Very nice work of art, and if he's ever in Nova Scotia, i wanna meet him and have him run it at the TC&WR! Sweet stuff!

siderod, he currently lives in Hamilton ON. I know he is planning a trip west to Vancouver but the folks out there have set there gauge at 7 1/2 inch for some reason. On the other side of the shay the wheels can be adjusted to the 7 1/2inch. This guy is quite a machinist.
