Willamette Locomotive

Description
The Willamette locomotive was essentially a Shay-like geared locomotive (it was copy of the Shay) built by the Willamette Machinery Works. They were very similar to the Shays, but they did have a few differences such as: the design of the bogeys, the use of Walschaerts valve gear instead of Stephenson, the use of superheat, etc. 33 units were built, all standard gauge and oil-fired, except one that was coal-fired (this one is coal-fired). They were built from 1922 to 1929.
Logging companies claim that the Willamette was better than the Shay in many ways.

This Willamette is based on Annaconda Copper and Mining Nº7 at the Fort Missoula Museum, Montana.
Also, don't mind the company name written on the tender :)

Moves with WASD and lights are L for the front and B for the back, you can also use X to enable the cab lights, although they don't work very well at all.

If it's laggy, you can remove most of the dynamic coal (select one of the smaller pieces, press P and then delete).

I work on the in real life Anaconda Copper Co 7, this is a super awesome model and pretty accurate looking too. Thanks for making this.
