One look at this classic locomotive and you can almost hear the old steam whistle echoing as it chugs up the valley. In their heyday, these engines moved freight of all types throughout rural America. They were operated by hard-working folks who helped shape this country. This 70-ton Shay locomotive was used by the Little River Lumber and Locomotive Company and is one of the few standard gauge Shays still in existence, making it a quintessential piece of Americana.
