Why buy from "The Shay Fixer"?
Simple...
I guarantee every engine will run as I say it will...which too often, is not the case when you buy from an online auction, retailer or third party who is selling their Shay "AS IS"... I myself would rather pay for quality than pay for disappointment any day of the week... ALL of my engines have gone through a rigorous "Tune-Up" and have been broken in for about an hour in each direction on a "Testtraxx" so that when you receive your new engine you can take it right out of the box and begin running her on your layout...or perhaps...just set her down to look at...

1 RARE RARE MINT | Brass PFM/United Uintah Railway HO scale HOn3 2-6-6-2T... manufactured in late 1978, she was in a run of only 350 units. In real life, this locomotive was the base engine for the Sumpter Valley's two articulated locos. This 'oh so sweet articulated' as the pictures will attest, is one magnificent little lady with clean lines, no wheel wear, a distinctive long stretched narrow gauge look, full backhead detail, very quiet and smooth operation due to original open tower gearing being replaced with new Delrin gears and more. And, as those who have bought locomotives from me in the past will testify...I pass on to you a well heeled, exquisitely fine tuned and running engine. She has gone through a rigorous "Tune-Up". This engine has been ultrasonically cleaned, lubed with just the right amount of "Nano-Oil" in all gear/bearing surfaces and has had "Neolube" and "Nano-Oil" applied to trucks and running gear. Gears have been lubed with the all new "Nano Grease". She has been run on a "Testtraxx" for about an hour in each direction to break her in. This also lets the lubricants work their way into all spaces. The motor and gearing have been adjusted to run at their optimum performance level. This little 'articulated' comes in a box which is in near mint condition, with foam that is like new. I bought this little lady from her original owner. There is a light Patina spread evenly across the entire locomotive. This is an exceptionally well running articulated rod engine that I pass on to you, with a minimum operating radius of 18".

1 RARE MINT | Michael Koch's, "Steam and Thunder in the Timber...Saga of the Forest Railroads". This is a signed collectors copy, by the premier logging railroad writer himself, published in 1979 by The World Press Incorporated, of Denver, Colorado. The book is in mint shape...binding, dust cover and every page inside. There is a plastic dust cover, in excellent shape, protecting the book, yet not attached to the book thus preserving it's value. The outer cover picture is taken with this dust jacket on. This book recounts the fascinating and colorful history of a century and a half of logging railroads in the area that stretches from the Kennebec River in Maine to Puget Sound on the West coast and from the Gulf of Mexico to Alaska and Canada. Here in one oversize, profusely illustrated volume is the whole panoramic sweep of the heritors of Paul Bunyan, who came, who saw and who conquered the vast forests of the North American Continent. If you are into logging, logging history, logging railroads, Shays, Climaxes, Heislers and vast arrays of one of a kind pictures, ideas, creative insights and more AND had one reference book...this would be the one!

1 RARE MINT | Michael Koch's, "Steam and Thunder in the Timber...Saga of the Forest Railroads". This is a signed collectors copy, by the premier logging railroad writer himself, published in 1979 by The World Press Incorporated, of Denver, Colorado. The book is in mint shape...binding, dust cover and every page inside. There is a plastic dust cover, in excellent shape, protecting the book, yet not attached to the book thus preserving it's value. The outer cover picture is taken with this dust jacket on. This book recounts the fascinating and colorful history of a century and a half of logging railroads in the area that stretches from the Kennebec River in Maine to Puget Sound on the West coast and from the Gulf of Mexico to Alaska and Canada. Here in one oversize, profusely illustrated volume is the whole panoramic sweep of the heritors of Paul Bunyan, who came, who saw and who conquered the vast forests of the North American Continent. If you are into logging, logging history, logging railroads, Shays, Climaxes, Heislers and vast arrays of one of a kind pictures, ideas, creative insights and more AND had one reference book...this would be the one! Unfortunately for all of us, when Michael Koch died, his will was very specific that this book would never be reprinted, revised or updated. The copies which exist presently are all there ever will be. This copy is like new...this is your chance to own the one book you need to have in your modeling library! The best reason of course to have a book such as this...it makes for some very interesting reading AND it is loaded with Shay pictures!

”Hello Again Phillip!
Finally got the package today; been playing tag with the USPS delivery. I was out when they came on Saturday. Came home in plenty of time based on the regular time for Saturday, 2 hours before, only to find that they had already been here. It goes on from there!!
Anyway! Thank You so much for such a nice piece. It will certainly look great on my desk next to my Willamette. It's been a real pleasure doing business with you. Communication did not lack for anything and for me that means as much as a great product.
Best Regards-Peace!

David from Portland, Oregon...
Phil,
I had been looking for a PFM Mich Cal Shay Hon3 for some time. I found your web site and discovered you had one. Fortunately for me, it was still available and I purchased it. I received it shortly after I sent payment and was very impressed with the little lady. It is in mint condition. The engine and the box look like it was just sent from PFM. You web site with the descriptions and the photos are right on. As I am able to expand my collection of Logging Shays, your site will be the first place I will look!
Thanks again

I received the engine last week and was completely thrilled on the performance of this engine. This is the second 2 truck Hillcrest Shay added to my collection. Looking forward to installing DCC control and painting.
Thank you for allowing me the opportunity for this purchase, for your service and understanding.
Looking forward to doing business with you again.
Regards,
Ron
