I converted one of my HO scale 3 truck Bachmann Shays into a 2 truck shay.

  • I've had this project on my to-do list for a while, but I need money to get another 3 truck. Looks like it works very well. You should have moved the rear truck back a little further though. That was the part I was really worrying about when I thought about doing this. Again, Nice Work!

    Why would I do that? The truck is in the same place as the center truck on the 3 T shay.

    Sorry, I posted before I was finished. Based on many pictures I observed of prototype 2 T shays, the rear truck looks to me to be in the correct position in relation to the rest of the loco.

  • Here is a link to my blog showing how I did it.

  • Thank you for the comment, It's now my favorite loco, you may need to add some weight to it if you have any grades.

  • Nice layout, keep the vids coming

  • Nice job on the conversion, it looks like it rolled out of the factory on 2 trucks. Looks like a very scenic layout, too!

  • I like! I'm going to do the same with my next Bachmann 3 trucker.
