SLOW RUNNING SHAY

[OLD BILL]

IN REGARDS TO SLOW MOVING SHAY.  OF THE FOUR GEARED LOCOS THE SHAY IS THE MOST NOTED.
YOUR SHAY IS A PULLER NOT A RUNNER. WHEN MY FATHER IN LAW BROUGHT THE CASS WV SHAY
TO ELKINS WV FOR A FESTIVAL WE MET HIM AT THE ELKINS STATION AND REMARKED HE HAD MADE
GOOD TIME.  HIS REPLY YEP WE WERE RUNNING AT 12MPH AT ONE TIME. MY SON AND I ARE RUNNING SOME OF THE
FIRST BACHMANN SHAYS DCC WE INSTALLED AND THEY ARE RUNNING FINE TODAY. REMEMBER
KEEP HER GREASED AND OILED AND   SSLLOOWW ON THE THROATLE AND SHE WILL LAST YOU A LONG TIME

REGARDS
