That would make sense except that the earth rotates at a about 1000 mph. It would have to be near the earths center for that to be reduced to 2.5mph. Specifically it would have to be 10 miles from the center point.
That's one huge heavy engine! Its wonderful that it got built & was able to re-create an event of over 110 years ago. Really enjoyed this magnificent demonstration of steam power!
Rollag is nearly 1000 miles one way for me, so this was my big trip this year. We might take a day trip over to Boonville, Indiana in October. We haven't been there for several years, and we miss it. There were many visitors at Rollag from the UK, Europe and Australia. The big Case is back in Andover, South Dakota this weekend, plowing at the James River Threshers Association. www.jamesvalleythreshers.com/
@@DavidN23Skidoo I have to admire the 100's or even 1000's of hours owners spend restoring & maintaining these engines. We have steam fairs, ploughing demonstrations etc. here of course. The big thing is passing the boiler examination. Thanks for the link, will check it out.
What a pull! I had goosebumps watching it on RUclips. Also, what a great PA system. I can never hear what the announcers are talking about at events like these.
That is so kind of you to say. Kory called me about 10 minutes before this exhibition and asked me to come tell the story~! It was an honor to be a part of this massive build and to be a part of history! I also get the honor to Emcee the Case Incline demonstration at Pawnee OK every year!!! Thanks David for memorializing this event into the annals of YT history!
> love steam engines and to get to see the legendary big boy case 150 is an iconic thrill. My grandfather was at the case factory to see the famous tractor pull the hill and he told me it was a mamouth of an engine but that at the time he told me the story none of them existed anymore. So to Cory thank you for all your hard work in casting and fabricating this monster so I can actually see the beast Pappy told me about. I just wish he coulda been alive to see it again also as he was about 12 yo when he saw it the first time. You can actually see him in the old photo of the pull.
It's almost funny watching it at a regular tractor pull. I've been fortunate enough to see that engine in person. on a prony brake it made 171hp and 5000 foot lbs of torque!! Talk about badass!!
Funny, I caught that too.... LOL~~~ When Kevin Anderson, Kory's dad, called me on the cell phone, not 10 minutes before they were about to start the demonstration, and told me I HAD to come give the story of the 150 and the history behind this pull, I told him there was no way I could prepare and do the 150 justice~~!!!! He said "you'll be fine" and with that, I was whisked to a makeshift announcer stand and a microphone shoved in my face, and thus began a "best efforts" drivel of everything I had remembered over the course of the last several years helping Kory with the engine!! There were more than a "few" historical inaccuracies in the short speech, but I think we were able to educate the thousands of people on the importance of sticking with your gut and following through with grit and determination on your dreams. And, oh, the incredible machines that were created by man over 100 years ago!!!
I was there (WMSTR-Western Minnesota Steam Thrashers Reunion) that day when Cory pulled all those steam engines up the hill. Was really something to see!😊
It was a huge thrill! I had my camera above me on a monopod and I had to keep the engine in the viewfinder, so I couldn't look directly at the 150 as it came by. I could feel it, though! The trip was totally worth it!
Ive been a professional welder for thirty five years, retired now, fabricated many things , but it would have been an honor to have worked on this , now mind you I worked for the railroad , Carmen welder mechanic for almost eight years , so yeah it would have been fun.......
It will come down to traction. Basically weight on drive wheels, once there is more weight of smaller ones on the drive wheels it will not be able to drag them any more. I have my doubts about actually moving it though. I also don't know what you would use to hook, there will be like 60klb of tension on the cable or chain.
Aw a dozer chain would hold her behind!!.... Hook it to the big bud 747 hahaha it will stop...but beautiful handmade piece of history for sure!up most respect to the work and talent that went into this thing!
Politics give USA a bad rap, there are a lot of amazing, caring people there who love history and in all countries it's the same. So sad we have the wrong people in power in every country in the world.
Wow very impressive power, I know technology is fast and better, but this is the best all time, never broken if people give right love and attention. My congratulations 👏
What's funny is that this thing is just as big as the articulated machinery like those Steigers that we use now, but it's significantly heavier and has a lot more torque. If it's anything like the other tractor pulls I've seen it could probably dig a trench with a quadtrac.
they don't realy have more torque than the newer tractors. the engine itself yes might have a higer torque but with the gearboxes and gearing we got in our tractors we got billions times more torque than these steam tractors. the new ford bronco truck has 29 000lb-ft of torque in it's crawler gear
@@rampage3337 the weight and traction differences plus steam power is what gives it the advantage over modern vehicles also the 5000 lb-tq figure was taken from the flywheel. The gearing on this thing to the wheel is 30:1 which means there is 150k lb-tq to the wheels
@@rampage3337 29000 lb/ft of torque huh? I'd really like to see about a dozen of them tied to that big Case steamer. Tug O War on! Well not really, they wouldn't even phase that Case.
Kory is remarkable because he built his skill level so he could use the old prints in Racine to make his CAD drawings and then make patterns, and cast the parts, then do the machining and assemble a working engine. Engine hobbyists have been thirsting for a Case 150 for decades, but Kory talked his way into the archives at Case, and did what no other steam lover has dreamed of doing. Let's see if other engine lovers ante up for casting kits from Kory to build more Case 150s!
Seen in another video it was making 5,000 +ft lbs at roughly 170 or so rpms. Try looking for..... " Case 150 hp steam engine on dyno " sorry not sure how to put a link here
Yes! We always have a big one here in my local area right after Labor Day. I always look forward to it every year. Still bummed out about it being canceled.
It was like a dream, being at Rollag for this event. I held my camera overhead with a monopod and had to look straight up, rather than at the 150. The vibration of the ground as it went by was thrilling.
@Dave Allen they are somewhat similar to an electric motor in that fashion. Most steam engines, as I understand them, shift the valve timer to change speed. Unlike a diesel engine, a steam piston uses both sides of the Piston head for a stroke, and if the valve stays open longer on one side, you'll get more power but it will take longer to open the other side to make The strokes faster. To go faster they reduce the amount of time that the valve stays open on one side, which in turn also reduces its power. this is usually fine since they have momentum and they don't need as much going power anymore. It's almost like gearing up for highway speeds to preserve fuel efficiency
36 tons of cast iron + 100 tons behind it + 15% grade hill and it only started to breath a bit harder reaching the top of the hill? WOW that's impressive torque from it
Check out the challenger series of locomotives, or just "Big Boy" steam locomotives in general. Also the Triplex locomotives are massive 6 cylinder steam locomotives.
Idling RPM on the case 150 is 200. It is running at 115~ RPM and is pulling 75 metric tons up a 15% grade. This beauty can likely haul 1000 tons up this slope b4 risking stalling out. Theoretically she can haul in the ballpark of 10,000 tons on flat. But that means she needs to drop down to 1RPM. At that low of RPM it will likely either explode or stall. I’ve seen on RUclips smaller steam engines drop down to 6-10 RPM.
ARE YOU SERIOUSLY kidding me....words fail me, bet there aint a machine of that caliber made today that could do that, I wish I could have been there, I love old tractors of ANY kind, my pops had an old steamer in SA Paraguay, still have a picture of him sitting on it, had huge iron wheels also, I always wondered how it got delivered to SA, to the colony where we lived, seeing that we didn't have the technology we have today to deliver such beasts, especially since it was more than likely manufactured in the good old U S of A, always wondered that. If they drove it from the port in Brazil.......they would still be driving it today in order to get it to Paraguay.....🤣
At Rollag in 2019 they had trouble with the belt slipping and flopping under a heavy load on the Prony brake, but they did have the 150 recorded at 5000 ft pounds and 171 horsepower. The numbers are at the 8:20 mark in this video: ruclips.net/video/tfSZ3w15Hhs/видео.html
well your car might be twice as powerful on paper but if your car is lighter, it would struggle pulling 4 locomotives up that hill. hehe its not just a matter of power,, but a good mix of WEIGHT-GEAR RATIO-TORQUE AND SO ON.
@@SuzukiRider93 Yes but point is that say a car thats 2.5 ton cant get the same traction as a monter that 50 ton. with pulleys you can pull anything by adding more and more pulleys. hehe but thats cheating.. That 100+ year old steam tractor was a beast for its time period.
@@samkom33 absolutely, both machines have their purpose. It's still impressive the energy a modern car can put out, this case shows what that power can do from a different perspective
@@SuzukiRider93 i just thought about modern traction,, say the modern Case quadtrac 620hp even if its only 62.000 pounds would probably be able to pull both the 150 case + the 4 other maskines up that hill even if the steam maskines wheels didnt turn. hehe im not sure about that, but it would be fun to watch. but its hard to say, and depends on the ground! i have seen a 90+ ton excavator slide on its belts on an easy road becouse the belts acted more like a skater instead of getting traction. hehe
The spinning thing is the governor. As engine speed increases, the balls spread outward against spring pressure, and operate throttling discs as the steam is going to the valve chest. You also have a pressure gauge, pop valve (safety valve), whistle, throttle, and reversing gear. The safety valve is called a pop valve because of its design. When steam pressure lifts the valve against its set spring pressure and steam comes through, the steam begins acting on a disc around the valve, lifting it quickly. It literally pops open instead of sizzling. This design also makes the safety valve stay open until the pressure drops several pounds, and then it closes quickly. The first time you are near a pop valve when it activates it really gets your attention. Getting back to the governor, there are many designs. Early ones on stationary engines relied on the weight of the flyballs with no spring pressure. Some engine builders used a horizontal governor so forces from bouncing on a rough road would not interfere with the governor's operation.
the bigger the cylinder and the slower the RPM the higer the torque. torque is calcualated by hp and RPM the slower the RPM the higer the torque the higer the RPM the lower the torque but the higer the hp numbers. this little 1cylinder engine does this mutch work becaus it's one giant piston that only has like 150rpm or so while modern machines likes semi trucks rew around the 1000-1500rpm range but one advanatage of our modern vehicles is our gearboxes wich increase torque by gearing. a modern volvo 750hp truck can pull 750 metric tons wich is 1,65million LBS (not pull it fast or pull it for any practicality but it can move 750tons)
Look up Kory Anderson on RUclips. He has some great videos showing the process. Look up Engineers and Engines Magazine. They did a couple issues of the build and might have back issues if you are lucky.
According to Kory Anderson's website, the boiler is tested at 350 pounds hydrostatically. They operate at 160 pounds. Thank You for visiting and commenting! This video took off recently! Where did you see it, or did RUclips suggest it to you?
Boy, I sure don't know that. It can pull a bunch of plows. Here is Kory's Case 150 website, with a bunch of info, but not the max tractive effort. 150case.com/ They are going for a new record of plow bottoms at the Labor Day show this year. You might contact Kory on the Anderson Industries Facebook page and get an answer. Thanks for visiting and commenting.
Beautiful machine, but the lack of gobs of grease in the gears is concerning. I'm reminded of the simpsons clip with willie ""Lunch lady doris have you got any grease?" Yes, yes we do "THEN GREASE ME UP WOMEN!"
Yes, that is correct. Kory went to the Case factory in Racine, WI and was granted access to the original drawings. He recreated them in CAD and made all the patterns for castings, which he poured in his foundry. He and his shop workers machined the parts and built it. The boiler was made in Ohio. There are a very few vintage parts on the 150. It is the ultimate scale model steam engine! Engineers and Engines Magazine did a couple issues where they covered the process. Contact Brenda Stant at E & E to see if they have any leftover copies. www.eandemagazine.com/
The engine can be reversed. There is no reverse in the transmission, though this big engine has two gear ratios in the transmission. Case engines have Wolff reversing gear. The eccentric operates a rod to a sliding block in a guide that can be rotated. A second rod goes from there to the slide valve assembly on the back side of the cylinder. Traction engines should not be driven forward down a steep hill because the crown sheet will be dry when the water moves forward in the boiler. An uncovered crown sheet is a very bad thing. It will overheat, and then it fails, making a boiler explosion. While backing down, the engine is used as a brake. It takes a practiced hand on the throttle and the reverse lever to do it smoothly.ruclips.net/user/shortsiBjT5LD9hsQ?feature=share
I'm looking for that with no luck. The rear wheels each weigh 6200 pounds! www.hemmings.com/stories/2018/05/08/after-a-dozen-years-replica-of-worlds-largest-traction-engine-to-debut
Rumor has it that there is a Case 150 at a secret location along the equator that is used to keep the earth rotating.... :) :) :)
😐
Seems legit.
Sounds about right to me.
That would make sense except that the earth rotates at a about 1000 mph. It would have to be near the earths center for that to be reduced to 2.5mph. Specifically it would have to be 10 miles from the center point.

Amazing that a single man took on this project. Well done Kory! My hat off to you.
Impressive one cylinder is doing all that work
and the sound is amazing.
That's the power of steam for ya! Little horsepower but so much torque! I love steam machines! 🚂
It is not dependent on number of piston , it completely dependent on, steam pressure
यमराज सेना And all of that pressure is being transferred to one piston head, one connecting rod, etc.
That is exactly what I was thinking.
I couldn't even SEE the steamers behind it at first haha, what a giant!
50 short tons of dead weight being pulled up a 15% grade and not breaking a sweat, WOW 🤩
The nice thing is that there is now a source of parts for Case 150’s! Guess we’ll have to build some more!
Call Kory! He'll probably be more than glad to start casting parts for you! It's the greatest scale model ever at 12" = 1'! I hope someone does that.
I can not believe what I just saw! That was absolutely amazing!
That 150 climbed that hill pulling those others with ease it was just a easy workout for it. That thing is awesome!!
I do believe she could have pulled a few more. That is real old fashioned, steam power. And to Kory Anderson I say, Good Job, ya done good.
What a wonderful piece of machinery, thank you Kory for keeping steam power and it's rich history alive.
This video just shows hard time and dedication pays off. It really is impressive the technology in the 150 for it’s time

150HP 4250 Torque it could pull the world if you got hooked up .
There is a test where they have a belt from the pto to a dyno and measured 172 horses and almost 5000ft lbs. It probably makes more at the tires.
imagine the torque a 500hp steam could get
5000 at max rpm mind you. I've seen estimates at zero rpm around 570,000

i have seen a 90+ ton excavator slide on its belts on an easy road becouse the belts acted more like a skater instead of getting traction. hehe
150HP STEAM ENGINE IS HEAVIER THAN 300 HP DIESEL TRACTOR
Only 150 hp but about 5,000 lbs of torque. They don't rev high but they can pull a mountain.
Whats that brass thing on top of the tractor that spins around.
The spinning thing is the governor. As engine speed increases, the balls spread outward against spring pressure, and operate throttling discs as the steam is going to the valve chest. You also have a pressure gauge, pop valve (safety valve), whistle, throttle, and reversing gear. The safety valve is called a pop valve because of its design. When steam pressure lifts the valve against its set spring pressure and steam comes through, the steam begins acting on a disc around the valve, lifting it quickly. It literally pops open instead of sizzling. This design also makes the safety valve stay open until the pressure drops several pounds, and then it closes quickly. The first time you are near a pop valve when it activates it really gets your attention. Getting back to the governor, there are many designs. Early ones on stationary engines relied on the weight of the flyballs with no spring pressure. Some engine builders used a horizontal governor so forces from bouncing on a rough road would not interfere with the governor's operation.
@@DavidN23Skidoo cool thank you.
The case oldest bigbud
From a stopped position. When they need a 50 story building moved over an inch. They gets out
I was sitting here waiting for it to hang the front wheels.
It didn’t even slow down... wow.
There is a dude doing a sled pull with a 110 case... Rumor is he is still pulling the sled.
@@timothybayliss6680 the sled wore down to nothing
@@timothybayliss6680 thats mostly becaus of grip
How does 1 small cyl of steam do so much work?
the bigger the cylinder and the slower the RPM the higer the torque. torque is calcualated by hp and RPM the slower the RPM the higer the torque the higer the RPM the lower the torque but the higer the hp numbers. this little 1cylinder engine does this mutch work becaus it's one giant piston that only has like 150rpm or so while modern machines likes semi trucks rew around the 1000-1500rpm range but one advanatage of our modern vehicles is our gearboxes wich increase torque by gearing. a modern volvo 750hp truck can pull 750 metric tons wich is 1,65million LBS (not pull it fast or pull it for any practicality but it can move 750tons)
Science and math
This is called "work" (W = F × d × cosθ).
If he had the help of many friends, he didn't do it single handedly. :-)
⚓️ Thanks 😎 any video of the build?
Look up Kory Anderson on RUclips. He has some great videos showing the process. Look up Engineers and Engines Magazine. They did a couple issues of the build and might have back issues if you are lucky.
@@DavidN23Skidoo 🙏 Thanks
I think I can I think I can.
how many psi is that steamer running ?
According to Kory Anderson's website, the boiler is tested at 350 pounds hydrostatically. They operate at 160 pounds. Thank You for visiting and commenting! This video took off recently! Where did you see it, or did RUclips suggest it to you?
@@DavidN23Skidoo RUclips
OK!!!
Whats the tractive effort on this out of interest?
Boy, I sure don't know that. It can pull a bunch of plows. Here is Kory's Case 150 website, with a bunch of info, but not the max tractive effort. 150case.com/ They are going for a new record of plow bottoms at the Labor Day show this year. You might contact Kory on the Anderson Industries Facebook page and get an answer. Thanks for visiting and commenting.
Beautiful machine, but the lack of gobs of grease in the gears is concerning. I'm reminded of the simpsons clip with willie
""Lunch lady doris have you got any grease?"
Yes, yes we do
"THEN GREASE ME UP WOMEN!"
Do these have brakes?
Most do not. The reversing gear brakes effectively through the drivetrain.
Just listen to the "CHUFF" !!
so this recorded engine is NOT the original from 1907 rather a new re creation from 2018???
Yes, that is correct. Kory went to the Case factory in Racine, WI and was granted access to the original drawings. He recreated them in CAD and made all the patterns for castings, which he poured in his foundry. He and his shop workers machined the parts and built it. The boiler was made in Ohio. There are a very few vintage parts on the 150. It is the ultimate scale model steam engine! Engineers and Engines Magazine did a couple issues where they covered the process. Contact Brenda Stant at E & E to see if they have any leftover copies. www.eandemagazine.com/
@@DavidN23Skidoo thank you, sad disappointed this isnt a restored original......
冒頭、リバース走行してるけど、コレってリバースギアで進んでる?クランク逆転させて進んでる?
The engine can be reversed. There is no reverse in the transmission, though this big engine has two gear ratios in the transmission. Case engines have Wolff reversing gear. The eccentric operates a rod to a sliding block in a guide that can be rotated. A second rod goes from there to the slide valve assembly on the back side of the cylinder. Traction engines should not be driven forward down a steep hill because the crown sheet will be dry when the water moves forward in the boiler. An uncovered crown sheet is a very bad thing. It will overheat, and then it fails, making a boiler explosion. While backing down, the engine is used as a brake. It takes a practiced hand on the throttle and the reverse lever to do it smoothly.ruclips.net/user/shortsiBjT5LD9hsQ?feature=share
What raw power! Makes a semi-trailer look pretty boring!
whats the gross weight of that monster?
I'm looking for that with no luck. The rear wheels each weigh 6200 pounds! www.hemmings.com/stories/2018/05/08/after-a-dozen-years-replica-of-worlds-largest-traction-engine-to-debut
Found It! About 75,000 pounds full loaded. www.agweek.com/business/agriculture/4536367-worlds-largest-steam-engine-reborn-south-dakota
@@DavidN23Skidoo Damn! that's almost as much as a fully loaded 18 wheeler! Thanks for finding the answers I seek... : )
"Breathing heavy" i bet you could double the weight an it would still climb
