That is a neat show. That is crazy that they did not even announce the show until the evening before. They are very lucky people even showed up. Thanks for sharing.
Great to see Shelly and yourself supporting a local show keeping history alive. We here in Iowa have a large show in Mt Pleasant Iowa over labor day 5 days ending on labor day. Hope to get to that this year if my leukemia will allow I am improving but it is slow. God bless you and yours Great Video!!!
Made my living with a 1978 R model Mack for a few years. 350 Mack engine and a 9 speed. Tough as nails truck. Yea the cab was a bit small but if your logging they are easy to see out of and get around with in the woods. Love them B models too.
Thank you for taking us along on the tour! Some very neat displays I found very enjoyable as I do this channels content. When I was a young fellow back in the late 1940's and early 1950's, Shay locomotives of various sizes were still quite common around this area. I do recall a few of standard gauge, but it seems like most of those I remember well were narrow gauge. Out west of the Tualatin Valley where I am located those engines worked some nasty grades and very windy track in steep rugged country. Nick, North West Farmer (Oregon)
Great stuff Ethan, you’re correct about American manufacturing…it’s a shame…those huffin and puffin girls sure are neat though👍🏻keep em comin young man🇺🇸💪🏻🇺🇸
Kinda cool they have a 3 foot gauge Shay there. Looks about like a 70-Ton 3-truck (or thereabouts). Largest Shay left that I know of is the Western Maryland 6, which is a 162-Ton 3-Truck Shay. It runs at the Cass Scenic Railroad in Cass, WV. I really need to get up to Hesston, they've got some neat stuff. Just a little trek from Arkansas lol.
You probably didn't mean it in a bad way on the advertising and last minute scheduling, but most of these shows are volunteer based and in today's world volunteers are hard to some by, if you were interested I'm sure they would like your help on organizing and any volunteer work you could do. Good video btw, interesting stuff there.
They have a full event calendar on their website that gets updated the first of every year. They didn’t bother to list it on that calendar but everything else is on there. On their Facebook all they did was copy and paste the announcement from last year and change the date. That easily could have been done in 30 seconds at the beginning of the month rather than the night before. As for volunteering there is one big problem with that. Back in the late 80s early 90s the organizers of that museum developed a very bad case of this is our show grounds and we don’t really want anyone outside of our group to be part of it. That mentality pretty much remains today and if you don’t know somebody that knows somebody they really dont want any outsiders. Same mentality that is killing a lot of clubs.
Don't kid yourself steam power is used still today Line shafts flat pulleys, tapered cone pulleys with flat belts steam power turbines still turning equipment today in fact I wouldn't be a bit surprised if Bayer didn't have line shafts running
When did I say steam power isn’t used today? And no bayer doesn’t have a single line shaft. I highly doubt there is a single major industrial complex in the US still using anything remotely close to line shafts and flat belts because osha would run out of write up cards… Don’t know what century you’re living in but it ain’t this one.

I need to take my boys to that show. They would absolutely love seeing that. Thanks for bringing us along Sir!
It’s a little pricey but it’s a good time.
Looks like the place Branden of Dirt Grain and Steel showed last year. Still love it, thanks Ethan.
No idea. Could be.
Nice. Glad to see a funday vid. Thanks for taking us along for the day Ethan. Take care. Fred.
Thanks

Good luck.
Quite a tour through history!!! My grandfather on my Mother's side had a steam powered tile rig...would've been interesting to see.
That had to be a monster.
Thank you for the tour, amazing to see
Thanks.
Thanks for sharing this really injoy it.

They are definitely off road trucks.
Ethan thanks for taking us along. You're definitely right more notice than the day before could have a higher turnout and visitation.
Yep
Gotta love steam engine shows. Tis the season coming up. Thanks for taking us along.
Yep. The original horsepower
They have a big show like yours up my way every summer. Been to it a couple times. Thanks for the video.
They are cool shows.
Wow that cool thank you buddy happy father's day your buddy from Nebraska

This looked like an interesting showing of steam machinery and old trucks. I might have to mark my calendar for this one
It’s not a bad little show.
Looks like a fun place to visit!
It is.

They are a neat engine to watch.

I remember going there when I was younger and watching the sugar cane juice being boiled down to sorghum.

I wanted to get more info on it but apparently that guy couldn’t be bothered to talk about it.

Love going to the steam engine thrasherees I can stand an watch a steam engine for hours.
Yep
Kahlenberg is actually still around, they stopped making engines in 1960
That coal hopper sitting outside the engine shed reminds me of the ones built locally here by the east broad top railroad, they were narrow gauge
Cool little show
The National Threshers Convention is this Weekend in Wauseon Ohio.
Happy Father’s Day
Happy father day
Wow a Shay. Dude couldn't be bothered though.
Dual gauge, looks like 2 ft and 15 inch. Cool.
It’s 3 foot and 2 foot.
Interesting stuff there
Man there lucky that anyone showed up posting it at 6pm the night before!!😂😂😂
Where was this show at? Im guessing northern Indiana 🤷
Yea
Max a dine was a diesel engine I think!
Are you going to put a tractor in any tractor pulls this year
