Hi,
I was reading a few old posts and there are statements that former Westside Shay 14 had a higher speed gear ratio than some of the other Westside shays such as 7, 8, 10, and 12. What were the top regular running speeds for these shays? Also, does Westside shay 15 have the same higher top speed gear ratio as no. 14? If not, what is the top regular speed for shay 15?
Sincerely,
Andy
