This took place at the Power Technology Building - 1:00 Friday October 19th, 2007 The first minute is part of the cerimony prior to the start-up. The man operating the air starting lever on head actually operated this engine at the Brookville Water Works prior to its removal in 1969 !!!!

    This has got to be the coolest museum I have ever been to! I love that they run the engines so you get to hear what they actually sound like. That is something you just can't get from a static display.

    I want to get one of these wonderful old engines and put it to work around the house. I'd use it pretty much like they did back then, mainly generating electricity and compressing air.

    Was this engine saved by John Wilcox? If it is, I saw it at his house about 4 years ago. That side shaft seemed like it was 20 feet long.
