Zusammenfassung:"2,768 locomotives constructed over a period of 65 years, for customers around the world, in a a myriad of designs. That was, and is, the Shay. The authors have spent more than two decades researching the Shay locomotive, its design, its ownership, its strengths, and its weaknesses. The result is a pictorial and technical narrative about a locomotive type that changed the industry and, arguably, altered the development of a country. It is a story intertwined with the industrial development of a nation through two World Wars, the Great Depression, and several financial panics. It is a story of invention, innovation, and change, both in the locomotive and in the industries for which it labored. This is the story of the Shay."--Dust jacket
