Shay #5 was hauling logs one hundred years ago. It continues to haul logs today. A steam locomotive in all it's glory with full, rich steam-train sound.

  • My Granddad owned a 287 acre farm that overlooked the town of Cass. Boy do I miss standing on top of Little Mountain and seeing that train wrap around the mountain and hear that whistle blowing. Brings a tear to your eye. I miss it so much.

  • That has to be the greatest 3-chime I've ever heard!!

  • That whistle is pure music!

  • What kind of combustion efficiency are we talking there? 40?

    You'd think someone could have found a way to admit some air above the fire, especially for such soft coal.

  • To clarify, I believe that is Artie's 5" Lunkenheimer 3 Chime. And David, Shay #3 had a Mann's Creek 3 Chime similar to a Crosby... 11 and 2 have also worn Crosby's in the past... The whistles change from time to time. So its never safe to say what the exact whistle is unless you ask the engineer. And to agree with yall, thats a beautiful Lunk, and no one better at the cord then Artie Barkley...

  • that is a badass three chime
