    is it really the biggest I have heard about it from a lady that got her grandpas 1 horse she takes to shows and grew up around vintage stationary engines, but never been there myself though though portland several times on the way dont to winchester for the races down though fort wayne, on the other hand went through the maumee valley club here by new haven were we have the shop for nkp 765 the locomotive just across the plot of land called the old cassad depot.

      @@HI-PER yea, and I do like americana but for a differant reason aside just the history that lives, we lost soo much of elements of what defined us for so long or that was in some form or element done or allowed in society but now all of a sudden its bad, the educational systom teaches the young to hate our past, they dont teach this day and age the life changing machines like these that built our modern way of life or local nuances near as much, many kids today have never even been on vacation even to an amusment park and seen a steam locomotive, it was ubiquitous when I grew up or not unknown but up here by fort wayne are several railroad towns and this area just across the boarder into indiana from ohio because its flat saw some of the fastest service passenger trains in usa history the pennsylvania railroad, and new york central, the elegance of the baltimore and ohio with its last steam bastion in Garrett up by Auburn, the famed cars of Auburn automotive company like the cords auburns and dussenburgs, and with it from the 60's onward starteing as a fundraiser for the auburn cord dussenburg festival the modern antique car auctions getting the high sought after prices they do today under the kruse family of auctioneers, mecum and barrett jackson are said to have been started by former workers of the kruse family I am told.
      we learn about the battles yes but I ask kids about them famous ones and they dont care enough to remember details even after a short time of learning it, but the mannor of dressing or concept of sunday best is almost lost people dont dressup for parties or holidays and if they do its a very immodest version, people dont take the pride they once did in the landmarks the statue of liberty, the places in dc, or philly, or if they do they call it a symbol of racism, or patriarchy, instead of learning from mistakes and lauding triumphs or the inginuity of our ancesters that built these machines they were very creative and had ideas of concepts even if the metalurgy was not quite there to be able to do it back then or process control, like electric welding which was being used in railroad and industrial shops since 1914 and before but it was mentioned as a topic that year at the railroad master blacksmiths convention according to papers from it that I saw on google read, or they had an idea of tinsle strenght and heat treating even though it was not as well controled or the process to make the steel they had a grasp of it even back then.
      I know from my local railroad history searches that mentioned names that were heads of the shops or departments by googling the names in google read of them once I learn of their names, or seeing vendors like wayne pump kunkle safety valve or anti borax flux company in railroad and old mechanical magazines from 100 years ago or late 1800's or old bass foundry in fort wayne and jenny electric company bass was the largest railcar wheel maker in the world at the turn of the 20th century, and jenny electric under william jenny invented a type of arc light and had a patent fight with thomas eddison who also for a time called fort wayne home as a telegraph operator.
      this kind of stuff isn't taught in schools unless someone tells the young about it give them somthing to be honored of if they are from the area, or mccray refigeration from kendallvill who I belive was the inventer or first person to make electric refrigerators or atleast early ice box refrigerators, and the windmills build by butler company up by where steel dynamics is as far as towns go, or the windmills built in kendallvill also.
      sarry for the rant but you could say I like americana and where we come from, and the older style clothing its simplistic but still often adorned compaired to modern ways people dress espcially the ladies, the longer dresses make for a longer more graceful line like the lines of an old building or roadster car for example or long sweeping curves like the tail of a graceful cat or plant blowing in the wind. I like it
