T-boiler shay

[Spule 4]

Ditto, with the same type of drive as the 0n2½ version. 

To obtain the best appearance the trucks must have that lacy open look, and not the blocked in blobs the other LS Shays have.

EXACTLY....  I liked the LS Shay until I noticed that in person, really detracts from the model.  But I can see why they built them that way, basically a two (or now three?) motor loco. 

Would the Bachmann Shay mechanics hold up to being driven in this way?
