J. Craig Thorpe (American, B. 1948) "Michigan Locomotive" Signed lower left. Original oil painting on Paper. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting is the original which appeared on the Fleetwood Legendary Locomotives of the 50 States Michigan Commemorative Cover postmarked August 12, 1995. During the early 1870s, logging was the dominant industry in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. The conveyance of timber harvested from those northern woods was largely accomplished by horses. However, inventor and lumberman Ephraim Shay, compelled by the high cost of such transportation, set out to develop a tramway to reduce his expenses. After spending six winters refining what his friends referred to as "Shay's Folly," the diligent inventor was ultimately rewarded. His finished creation was a geared-logging locomotive quite unlike the traditional siderod-driven steam engines of the day. Shay's invention operated with gears and universal joints, allowing the engine to climb steeper grades and sharper curves on tracks that had been hastily laid for lumber removal. In 1888, Shay moved to Harbor Springs, Michigan, where he established a logging railroad called the Harbor Springs Railway Company. Locally known as the Hemlock Central, this system served both as a testing ground for Shay's later locomotives and as a means of removing the remaining timber in the Harbor Springs area. Shay ultimately produced three locomotives for this line, including the one shown here, No. 1, nicknamed "Baby." However, his greatest contribution to the railroad industry came through his association with the Lima Locomotive Works of Ohio. From 1880 to 1945, the firm built more than 2,700 geared locomotives under license from Shay. Image Size: 14 x 12 in. Overall Size: 18 x 15 in. Unframed. (B15146)
