He used alot less horses than I'd have thought! I'm having trouble identifying that lead steam engine in the last pic...but the other 2 are Hubers, I think. I've got a good sharp eye working on it as we speak.....
Thanks JD!!

i knew that would be a hit--the folks of the county have done a pretty fair job of preserving the local history--i went to school with the fellow that did a lot of it--Hats off to mr phil

On the last picture there, with the 3 steam engines pulling, the engine closest to the house is a Huber return flue, next is a Gaar Scott return flue, and the lead engine is a very OLD Reeves. The guy I sent the link to is about as close to a Reeves expert as there is around, and he was totally impressed!
Thanks JD!
