- See huge reciprocating steam engines run. Hear about the beginnings of wireless communication, and learn about the genius behind it all. The New England Wireless and Steam Museum in East Greenwich RI presents this video, made by our volunteers, in lieu of our 56th annual Steam Up event. There is no comparison to seeing these incredible pieces of technology in person, but we hope this video brings you close to it all.
Please consider a donation to the museum via this PayPal link to support our efforts of education and preservation. Thank you

Really enjoyed the show!!
Thank you Jonathan. Thanks for helping us spread the word here and your donation!
Interesting start up! 3:01:00 for the great talk from the staffer if you're here for that guys.
@@Rebar77_real Give that kid some sunglasses with the light streaming in there!
Great explanation of the various steam engines! I sent a PayPal donation.
Thank you so much Philip! We're glad you enjoyed it so much!
I just donated. The Steam Up is one of several annual events that I try to go to every year. A couple of years ago a guy brought a Stanley Steamer, that would make a great museum piece. I love the museum and we are so lucky to have it in New England. I do wish that you had a large condensing turbine on display with the rotor exposed. It would be neat to have a building with turbine stuff that explained power generation and the electrical grid, just an idea.
Thank you very much! We do know the Stanly Steamer you mean and it's always great to have him here. Your idea on the turbine is excellent as well and something we would love to incorporate into the exhibit.
That green barrel collapsing was really something!
Thank you for a most enjoyable and interesting tour of the museum. Thank you to all the volunteers! Great job on Steam Up 2020. Hope to visit in the near future. All the best. Ray Kelley from Ann Arbor, MI
So, go back into the wireless shop and have someone tell you what “coded message” the 55 gallon barrel is tapping out! Wonderful video. Thanks.
This is brilliant and maybe more informative than the Steamup in person - we get to see and hear about the mechanisms close-up. Wonderful and thank you! Watched the whole thing of course! And we've loved coming to the Steamup in past years and hope to do it again!
Glad to hear it, and thanks for watching! There's always a fine line between lots of great info and not enough visual. With everything being packed in so tight we were hoping this close-up would have good value, and I'm glad to hear we achieved that!
At 20:20 you were wondering how much surface area there is for tubes in that wood fired vertical boiler made in 1966...
If each tube is 2 inches diameter and 7ft long, that gives you 3.66 sq ft of heat transfer atea per tube. With 205 tubes in that boiler, you get about 750 sq ft, total surface area for all tubes in that boiler.
Hopefully that gives decent heat exchange space, for efficiency.
The automatic Columbia boiler 22:00 is undoubtedly easier/better to run unattended, and probably just as efficient, providing enough steam (15hp) to power most any steam engine on site (since they are not under much load) as long as you don't try to run too many engines at the same time.
I wonder how much surface area there is for that automatic boiler?
Jonathan W tipped me off to this, thanks guys, incredible.
He needs to visit this Museum before wrench on his treasure.
I think it would be worth the trip from iowa to see your show we love steam power in the state of iowa hope to see you next year take care
Thanks Mike. We sure hope we can see everyone next year and would love to have you.
And, there is another show in Kent CT at CAMA that is typically the weekend before ours. Keep them both in mind and make that trip doubly worthwhile!
Wonderful video... Thank you for sharing!
I love this place, been there many times. - John, K2TQN
Thanks John, we had N1EPJ on the air today too and will hopefully be doing that on a more regular basis moving forward.
Good show. Loved it. Thank you.
Looking forward to it👍
A crying shame the audio is SO bad.... Could not understand most of it...
damn music!
really could've LEFT the music out and the original audio intact without any of the trash music for those *WHO* want to hear these old gems and not some modern rock trash.
