I know someone who got one of those in almost mint condition at an estate sale for $10. Runs great too!

I'm not sure this member is still around, but my advice would be to buy another one and use this as a parts donor. In addition to the shaft it's missing a cylinder, the oil lamp, a stirrup under the cab and a tender wheel set, plus the cowcatcher and cab windows are broken. The drive and tender look good. You might be able to find a junker with the missing pieces, but those parts are usually the first to go.
