Not all trains were made to race; some were made to climb.
The Shay-type Steam Locomotive is a fascinating replica of the famous geared locomotives historically used to climb steep mountains and haul timber.
With 880 pieces, this model offers a build experience unlike any conventional train.
Its asymmetrical design and exposed mechanics reveal how these machines generated raw power to overcome challenging terrain where ordinary trains would fail.
Get ready to add a legend of engineering to your fleet.
The highlight of this model is seeing the engineering in motion right before your eyes.
Equipped with the Power Module, it combines fun with technical learning.
Vertical Pistons: Unlike standard locomotives, the Shay features side-mounted pistons that rotate an external drive shaft.
You can watch all the gears spinning in sync as the train moves.
Remote Control: Operate your locomotive with precision using the included remote or a smartphone app, adjusting the speed for complex maneuvers.
Compact Design: Its size and durability make it perfect for tight curves and active play.
Once the build is complete, you will have a train with a unique industrial look and strong personality.
But a freight locomotive needs work to do.
If you enjoy variety on your railway, we invite you to explore our Trains and Tracks collection.
Pair the Forest Climber with log cars or ore wagons to create the perfect exploration scene.
Climb the mountain. Secure the Shay-type Steam Locomotive and take your railway to the next level.

It’s proven that building model cars helps relieve stress and anxiety.
Focusing on the pieces and the building process calms the mind and brings a sense of tranquility.
According to psychologist Sabrina Amaral, we all have an “inner wise self.”
Before feeling overwhelmed by life or work, she recommends using tools that help us connect with it — such as Self-Therapy, a technique inspired by the Socratic method.
It encourages deep self-reflection, helping a person find their own answers through a series of thoughtful questions.
Building model sets requires attention to detail.
This activity also helps improve concentration and focus, especially for people who struggle with attention difficulties or ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder).
Building model sets can be a way to express emotions and feelings nonverbally.
The creations may reflect the builder’s emotional state and provide a healthy way to process difficult experiences.
Completing a model car can bring a deep sense of accomplishment and pride.
This helps boost self-esteem and confidence, especially for those who face challenges or difficulties in other areas of life.
