These are the biggest engines I’ve ever seen in person. They were used to generate electricity for big factories for many decades. I never did find out the horsepower of the engine with the massive flywheel.
The Western Minnesota Steam Threshers Reunion is held every Labor Day Weekend in September. It’s entirely volunteer based with some volunteers working most of the summer to prepare for the show. It is a must see that I highly recommend.
I’m not affiliated nor sponsored by the WMSTR. I went and paid to get in like everyone else does. This is some of the footage I took while enjoying my time there.
