  • Let's go to the tractor show! Today I'm at the Pageant of Steam in Canandaigua, New York. We'll look at the antique tractors on display, including ones made by International (Farmall), John Deere, Oliver, Minneapolis Moline, Rumley Oil Pull, and many others! There are also lots of big steam traction engines, steam traction engines, and stationary gas & steam engines.
    Note:

    What blows my mind is every country went through the industrial Era, and thousands of inventors had there own ideas and added a twist here and there. And every product mined from the earth , every kind of crop and sawmill to earth moving machinery developed at different levels, and different times till it started to evolve to what we have now with inventors fine tunes things.

    When I saw the title today I thought..”I’m not really interested in a tractor show”. However, I actually found it quite interesting even though I don’t understand how an engine works...it’s Greek to me. I did enjoy seeing the working steam engines (quite the era) and the miniatures were fascinating. The flea market is more my speed but I did enjoy the whole show Pete. 🥰👍

I would love to see you find a old truck like that red one. You are so good at it and it's something that could be given down the line. I appreciate how much you adore what you do. I hope you get to a million veiwers to make a great income farming. You are a lucky person Pete. Neal

    Hearing that whistle blow at lunch time took me directly back to my childhood growing up in Mechanicville, NY! Everyday, as a child, I could hear the whistle at the West Virginia Pulp and Paper Mill on the Hudson River blow at noon and at quitting time. Both my Grandfather and Father worked there. Sometimes my Mom would drive us up to the plant when the noon whistle blew and my GrandDad would come to a certain window, open it up and wave to us in the car. Me and my younger sister, (4 and 3 years old), were the moon and the stars in my GrandDad’s eyes. Thank you for that unplanned walk down memory lane. 😘

    I absolutely loved this video Pete. I learned alot and always wondered how steam engines worked so I appreciate the time that you took to explain it. I would've loved the flea market part of this event. The one thing that I love hearing about and I didn't realize they made until you showed us was your tractor that starts on gas then changes over to diesel. I want to read about it because I can't imagine how it's designed to be able to accomplish that but I definitely will learn more about it. Thanks again for sharing your family in these videos also.
