Description
It gets smoky during the annual Parade of Steam at Cass Scenic Railroad State Park in the mountains of West Virginia as all five of the Shay Steam Locomotives push each other along. Shay Locomotive No. 5 brings up the rear.
The Shay Steam Locomotives were never fast. Still, they could accomplish the impossible - ascend the steepest inclines, navigate sharp hairpin curves, and traverse delicate makeshift tracks, all while transporting massive loads from the forest to the mill.
