LGB's new 'high end'* Shay IS 1/20.3 scale after all!

I did three of their Jackson-Sharpe passenger car conversions for a pal to take back to US with him. At around £300 for the conversion kit, plus £250 for the car, and about fifty hours careful and painstaking effort on my part, they were never going to be a money-spinner for RG.

They looked nice, but..............................Holeeeeeeeeeeeee etc.

Life was too short for me to do any more, and he took them, and three kits, back stateside when he left.

I can't help but notice a marked lack of response from our phantom Shay builder and his four incredible models. Anybody heard from him?
 
There were commercially built models (from Japan and South Korea?) available in this scale sometime ago - several were for sale through the West Side forum group a while back (I didn't download images of them).

And for scratch-built accurate replicas of the West Side (locomotives, rolling stock and buildings) you probably cannot go past Bob Poli's Fn3 layout:
