Awesome. A shay or two in blighty would have been interesting to see on a heritage railway?

Would be good on the Bluebell line.

At the speed it goes the driver could pick a bunch of flowers for his mum without stoping.

So will the buffered version be made avaliable? Would be funky to note a shay working here. Swanage, mid hants, somewhere loggish?

The buffers are a freight animation but I can't upload because the length and bounding box needs to be changed.

The route is the French Lozere-V2 which is excelent.

I was the only route I had installed at the time.
The Shay struggled on the steep grades tho.

The wagons were posted here but were not uploaded as no-one seemed interested.
