This is a casting set to construct the Ken Schroeder 1-1/2” scale 3 truck Shay as advertised in Live Steam.
Most of the heavy machining is done –3 cylinder engine is machined and assembled; axle boxes are machined; truck bolsters are fabricated; wheels are machined. The previous owner was going to build this as a 4-3/4” gauge narrow gauge Shay, thus the bolsters and axles are machined to that gauge. Martin bevel gears are included (these 6 sets currently retail for over $1400) U-joints are machined and assembled. Most of the material for the truck frames is included. A complete set of drawings and Schroeder photos are included. All for $2200. Shipping and crating extra. I estimate the weight at 70lbs so shipping will be substantial. These will ship in a heavy duty plastic shipping tote.
