Shay Locomotive
The Shay locomotive is a geared steam locomotive that originated and was primarily used in North America. The locomotives were built to the patents of Ephraim Shay, who has been credited with the popularization of the concept of a ''geared steam locomotive''. Although the design of Ephraim Shay's early locomotives differed from later ones, there is a clear line of development that joins all Shays. Shay locomotives were especially suited to logging, mining and industrial operations and could operate successfully on steep or poor quality track. Development Ephraim Shay (1839–1916), was a schoolteacher, a clerk in an American Civil War hospital, a civil servant, a logger, a merchant, a railway owner, and an inventor who lived in Michigan. In the 1860s, he became a logger and wanted a better way to move logs to the mill than on winter snow sleds. He built his own tramway in 1875, on gauge track on wooden ties, allowing him to log all year round. Two years later he develope ...

2-10-2
Under the Whyte notation for the classification of steam locomotives, represents the wheel arrangement of two leading wheels, ten powered and coupled driving wheels, and two trailing wheels. In the United States of America and elsewhere the is known as the Santa Fe type, after the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway that first used the type in 1903. Overview The wheel arrangement evolved in the United States from the 2-10-0 Decapod of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway (ATSF). Their existing 2-10-0 tandem compound locomotives, used as pushers up Raton Pass, encountered problems reversing back down the grade for their next assignments since they were unable to track around curves at speed in reverse and had to run very slowly to avoid derailing. Consequently, the ATSF added a trailing truck to the locomotives which allowed them to operate successfully in both directions. These first locomotives became the forerunners to the entire family. The trailing truck allows a ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Mercedes-Benz M186 Engine
The Mercedes Benz M186 Engine was a 3.0–litre single overhead camshaft inline-6 developed in the early 1950s to power the company's new flagship 300 "Adenauer" (W186) four-door saloon. It made its debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show in April 1951. Designed to give reliable service under prolonged hard use, the iron block/aluminum head engine featured deep water jackets, an innovative diagonal head-to-block joint that allowed for oversized intake and exhaust valves, reverse-flow cylinder head, thermostatically controlled oil cooling, copper-lead bearings, and a hardened crankshaft. Variants of the M186 went on to be used in the exclusive 300 S/300 Sc gran tourer, iconic gullwing 300SL sports car, and Mercedes top-end 300-series sedans and limousines, and coupes of the early to mid-1960s. Production ended in 1967, four years after the introduction of the 600 ''Grosser Mercedes'' and the M100 V-8. The various versions of the engine (M186 – M199) produced from as compression ...
