Early shays were Class A or Class B. Class A was 2 cylinder 2 truck. Class B was 3 cylinder 2 truck. Class C is 3 cylinder three truck ( a close coupled tender), and Class D were the largest being 3 cylinder 4 truck. Cass has a Class D. Then there is the Pacific Coast variation. These were super heated. Williamette Iron Works was a seller and servicer of Shays so knew shays inside out. They produced their own with the super heating plus some other inovations. There was enough of a market that Lima began to produce a Pacific Coast version as well.
