Georgetown 14
Author: espee99

I visited Georgetown Loop last Saturday and was surprised to see that the have 3 Westside shays. Great to see 14 working.

Staff says that someone has purchased the Westside and was inquiring about purchasing number 8 and returning it to Westside. Anyone know anything about this.

Thanks in advance

My only cab ride on steam was on this engine. Thanks for putting the picture on the board.

3 Westside Shays? I thought all they had was the #8 & #14.

West Side property at Tuolumne, Calif. was recently purchased by the MiWuk Indian Tribe of the Tuolumne Reservation!

I rode the Loop about 3 weeks ago. What a great hunk of railroad! nice folks too. It is sad that they have those pass cars locked up there.

3rd Georgetown Loop Shay (was: Georgetown 14)

The third Shay is #12. It\'s also the biggest of the three. Except for use during the inital season of steam, #8 hasn\'t ever been run, likely due to it being a saturated steam boiler.
