    No station wagons, but a very cool 1912 Steam Tractor still operating.

    Aw man. That's a bummer. I LOVE antique farm equipment. I especially love to see it running. Pretty awesome.

    We have an AG Museum here in town. It's pretty small in comparison to some of the big midwestern ones, but there's a lot of good stuff. Each year they have a number of events, one of which is the Pioneer Power Show. I've been going every year since I was a kid. They have a working saw mill and a ton operational implements that they run daily. The steam powered tractors are a real treat to see in action.

    Enjoy those shows. You have to see farm machinery in person to appreciate how you big it can be. Do not remember where it was but once saw an old steam farm tractor ? that looked like a locomotive.

    What a neat day Mark. They have a farm and tractor show every year in Corrales, NM it’s a ton of fun seeing all the old tractors and stationary engine displays.
