Nick that antique machinery is just too cool for words! Can't call it primitive, those machines were the top technology of their time and they still work as advertised. Just amazing! Thanks so much for posting! (Now my life won't be complete until I get a steam tractor! )
Great stuff, Nick. My Great Grandpa had a JI Case steam tractor on the Adams family Homestead in Northwestern Kansas. It was great to see these running. I had forgotten that they had a steam whistle like a locomotive. We lived on a farm and had a John Deere put put tractor. There is nothing better than seeing and hearing one of these old machines running. The intimidation factor was at a high level. Those were the days. Every day was another adventure. Love the Shays. They're a real hoot. Pun intened. They are mesmerizing to watch running. Looks like a great way to get nowhere slowly.
I'm glad had a great time there, I'm still tired from catchingm416 Thurs & Fri Nt. 1899 was leading Thurs, & 1853 was on Fri, @Trainzilla was there too
Great video, I was surprised I didn't see more Amish. The Amish around here love steam engines a couple of them have hit or mis type engines enjoyed thank you
Quick correction. The locomotive at the Strasburg RR is a Cagney Bros locomotive. They were the closest thing Crown had to a competitor in the 15in+ live steam market. Though by the time Crown came into its own Cagney Bros was well on its way out
Great video. I have been to Kinzers Rough & Tumble in August.Never in May. I really enjoy the noon whistle blow. Nice you posted this . I never knew what the spring show was like. If you ever get the time check out The Williams Grove shows.They run an original 1901 P.R.R. steam locomotive. From what I heard it is the only P.R.R. steam locomotive in operation.
Thank You Nick
They took pride what they built back in the day
Yes they did. Thanks for watching!

Thank you for the video
You’re very welcome!
That place is awesome
Looks like a interesting place to visit!
While I liked everything, the steam powered cranes always fascinate me the most - great stuff Nick!
I went to R&T last summer, a great place to spend a whole Saturday at especially the thresher reunion
I really enjoyed these "land locomotives." Thanks!
Definitely go in August, you won’t regret it.
I’ll be there for sure 🚂💨

Great video 📹

Thanks for watching! I was asked to try to not get them on camera out of respect. They were running all sorts of equipment as well
@@NixCrossing Ok yes, they don't want to be on camera, so you must have had more than seen. nice video
Awesome footage Nick.

Thanks for sharing looks like a great way to spend the day that Shay is cool it looks like about 1/3 scale
That’s my whistle they had on the Shay that weekend. It’s a Canadian National Railroad 4 Chime locomotive whistle from an N-4 Class 2-8-0.
That was a beautiful sounding whistle. Thank you all for that amazing day of Steam
Very cool! I've been wanting to visit that place. I'll have to put it on the calendar for August.
Thanks for the video Nick. That place looks really cool. Definitely have to check it out sometime.
Happy National Train Day!

I'll bet 80% of the reason Nick went was for the whistles
