Cool video Skull. My Dad spoke about working in the fields with steam tractors.

E-Bob i've never been to one of those events. Need to put that on the list.
That thing may be diesel! I can see where we will have to watch that Bonehead much closer.

Got that right - my daughter is all over that site.

I remember the Thresher Reunion when I was kid. Always amazed me. My Uncle had a little steam engine in his garage. Not sure what he used it for - if anything. I think he had it on a go-cart at one time, but not sure - parade kinda thing. I was fairly young.
