Rich- If you enjoyed that then, you'd love this place http://www.roughandtumble.org/rt-albums/rt-2007_reun/rt_photo_2007_reun.asp The museum is close to Lancaster, PA and about 60 miles of Philadelphia. We went there in August and saw so much big steam equipment like http://www.roughandtumble.org/rt-albums/rt-2007_reun/c/4764rt_2007_1_040.asp#Photo that we got numb to it. And about 50 or so hit-and-miss engines of various power and design, some standalone, some as a piece of equipment like this saw http://www.roughandtumble.org/rt-albums/rt-2007_reun/c/5518rt_2007_2_259.asp#Photo Wonder what OSHA would saw about this little marvel today...
