Hi.
In this scale, details are no problem. The rivet heads have 3.5mm in diameter (20mm in full scale). 8-)
Here are some close ups from earlier date. The plates are photo etched brass.
The cn# 782 is borrowed from a similar Shay that is reported to be lost in a quarry flood in 1914.
In my little world, the Shay survived the flood and came to the Bear Creek in 1915 where the loco was rebuild with a new cab and came back into service 8-)
Cheers, Gerd
