Again from Flimsies, toward the bottom of article: I wasn't aware the Ali-Shan had any rack railway track. Does it, or is the writer just misinformed? http://www.taipeitimes.com/News/taiwan/archives/2003/03/15/198098 ryarger@rypn.org |

Not that I'm aware of, Bob. I think its just a case of inaccuracy - substituting the concept of a cog locomotive for that of a geared locomotive. The thought of a cog-powered Shay just doesn't parse.
