Welcome back to another steam adventure!
In today’s video we will be looking at early American steam engines from the 20th century from the Steam O Rama show located in new Windsor Pennsylvania
Today’s events included a hill climb, velocity wheel, sawmill demonstration, steam parade, and night spark show. Unfortunately, the steam tractor pull was canceled due to poor track conditions
Enjoy!
Happy Railroading!

Those old tractors look like Old Trains with wheels, so cool. Nice show, couldn't see a lot of the pulls, but cool anyway.

Thanks so much for watching! Unfortunately the day time pulls were canceled due to the track conditions so they did a “pull” with the spark show.

Oh wow Nick, words just fail me on this one! "Cool" just doesn't begin to describe those incredible old machines! And a steam roller too! A REAL steam roller, not the diesel powered ones everyone calls a steam roller out of habit. What a thrill seeing one of those! The spark show was incredible, although I couldn't help but think back in the steam railroad days a division superintendant would have had a heart attack if he saw one of his crews doing that! Hey, I've got a suggestion you can pass on to those folks. If track conditions cause a cancellation of the tractor pull contest how about a parallel parking contest? Wouldn't THAT be interesting? 😂 Thanks so much for bringing us along with you! Great video.

Awesome video, I bet it was a fun day! I have been to the Somerset, VA Steam & Gas Pasture Party a few times and enjoyed it. In fact, my channel wallpaper is from there. I have a few old videos from there as well.

@NixCrossing I would love to get behind the wheel on one of those, they're like land locomotives.

Awesome video Nick. I remember years ago when a friend of my uncle used to operate one of these great machines!!!

Thanks so much for watching! I’m definitely thinking about getting a smaller engine to run at home

The peeps that own these steam tractors will tell you they run on 100% renewable energy wood.

@NixCrossing 9 ай бұрын

The only problem with wood is that is tarnishes everything black and it’s hard to keep that brass all shiny. I did the same thing a while back with my tabletop steam engine, it’s never looked the same since.

@wayneantoniazzi2706 9 ай бұрын

In the old days that was the beauty of these machines, as long as you had something to burn in the firebox you had power, and it didn't matter whether it was wood or coal.

Good thing every engine in this video is burning coal lol
