Thanks for the help! <br /> <br /> [quote]QUOTE: <i>Posted by "cacole'' and almost everyone else</i> <br /> <br />Unless you're prepared to invest at least $100 more in regearing and remotoring, the MDC Shay kit is not worth the price. You can get a Bachmann or MDC pre-assembled Shay for the same investment as what you would need to modify the MDC Shay kit. I have a 100 page document explaining how to get the MDC kit to run. Unless you have a fully equipped workshop with drill press, etc., don't waste your money on it.[/quote] <br /> <br />I don't think I will get an MDC shay. <br /> <br /> [quote]QUOTE: <i>Posted by "trainnut1250''</i> <br /> <br />look for the bachmann 3 truck on Ebay. There are lots of them closing around that price. <br /> <br />Guy[/quote] <br /> <br />I will keep an eye on Ebay, but I will not bid until there is anything under $100.00 and then I will go with the cheapest that is in good condition. <br /> <br /> [quote]QUOTE: <i>Posted by "FundyNorthern"</i> <br /> <br />Trainworld currently lists: <br />Scale, Category: HO Scale - Steam Locomotives <br />Item No.: 81901 <br />Name: 70 Ton, Three-Truck Shay <br />Roadname: Painted, Unlettered (wood cab) <br />$129.99 <br /> <br />Good luck! <br /> <br />Bob Boudreau <br />Canada[/quote] <br /> <br />I'm still looking into that one.[:D]
