To all,
Thanks Tony for the tale of history,
Yes, we have a true Brit with a King!!
I have a friend locally whose name is Heisler. He has a small but
wonderful turn of the century railroad--with a heisler!! Even more
appropriate since this is logging country- as you know! He did have a
Hydeout Mountain modified gas fired Shay at one time--it is still in the
area. We'll be steaming NG on another RR in the back country on April 1
and there will be pics available.
Perhaps we can discover the truth of the the Shea and the driving motion.
I like your b.s. on the watering station in Tunbridge Wells.
Geoff.
