Nah, #6 is a 32 ton model, the measurements of the bachman 1:20.3 shay are much bigger than that. Its either a 36 or a 42.

The bachman has a 50 inch backhead and frame space and the same boiler i believe the 42 class has. I assumed the 36 models still used a 45 inch backhead but i do not know for sure.
