Suggestions For the best 3 Truck Lionel shay

Well, Eliot I had a TMCC  Western Maryland 3 truck Shay and it sounded and ran great.

A customer asked me to sell, I did, and I'd buy another, it was a nice runner, great sounds.

Find a Kline NYC Shay in the aftermarket, I love it. And by the way they had them down in the city with shrouding added.

I have the Cass 3 truck shay from the 2007v2 catalog, and I love it.  I think that the other shay in that catalog is Birch Valley.  If you are interested in the Cass version, I think I saw one at Nicholas Smith last month (I could be mistaken, as I wasn't really looking for another).

I also have the recent Legacy Cass 2 truck shay, and it is a great loco in its own right.

What's nice about the 3-truck Shay models from MTH; they have the CORRECT chuff rate!

Eliot,
As Dave, I am happy with this one:

Eliot,

I also have a TMCC 3 Truck Shay and all the log cars.  See your email fro details if your interested.  Everything has never been out of the Lionel boxes so factory sealed and I guess considered "Mint" if you will.

Best Regards,

That's it, I've got to get another one. I weathered mine, it's one loco that should be grungy looking, I think, and nice video Alex, you've just cost me $600.

Eliot,  I'm thinning my collection. I have the Lionel Western Maryland 6-11157 mint, sealed in the box. If your interested let me know. I'm over in Danbury.
