I heard/saw a reference of someone by the last name of Ice near Cadillac, MI where Ephraim Shay built his prototypes. Apparently, Mr. Ice built a replica Shay which he ran in Cadillac. I'm not sure how old this reference was, but I did see it many years ago also in one of the NG-related magazines (Short & Narrow Rails, or the Gazette). I'd presume these replica Shays are narrow gauge.
Anybody know more about the Ice replica shay or shays and what their status is?
Thanks,
Ed Kelley
