yeah, the shay was used for power on logging railroads or railroads with steep grades and sharp turns. they are SLOW but powerful.

gp40mc is absolutely correct. Why would you post wrong info on such a rare and important loco? Get your facts straight and don't make stupid guesses if you don't know. Do 3 minutes of research and you will find everything you needed to know about the Shay.

The description for this video is wrong. These locomotives were desinged for hauling log cars up very steep mountain grades. Not for hauling passengers. They are also one of the slowest locomotives that exist. Cool video but I suggest you correct the description because it's pretty much the opposite of what that locomotive is designed for.

Actually the Willamette Iron and Steel works of Oregon did a pretty good job of just that ;)
