Well I've been to a couple hundred shows in my time but I have to ask. What is that Baker? Seeing radiator on a steam engine sure has my curiosity peaked.
'Abner Baker realized that they should have a high pressure steam tractor and came out in about 1923 with a water tube boiler (or steam generator) carrying 550 pounds water pressure. on the front you see a steam condenser.
@@oldfarmshow This one is not the water tube engine. This one, a model 20-40, had a normal locomotive type fire tube boiler. The engine with the water tube boiler was the 15-30 baker "steam tractor", like the one owned by the Henry Ford Museum.
Love these old tractors, thankyou for sharing it with us.
Rare pieces of machinery the Forest City Iowa steam show
