I love these old steam shows. I'm 58 years old and the older I get the more I enjoy it. I especially like those hit and miss engines . Sometimes nostalgia is a good thing.
Hi Pete, the Oliver 1855 is mine, with a 5.9 Cummins. I'm in the process of pulling the Over Under cooler to get it repaired, that's why the tin was off the one side. I know you are an IH man. My father bought a 1939 Mccormick Deering O 14, 406 were made. He bought it in 1966 from a local Case dealership. I then sold it the son of the dealership 35 years ago. I know have been trying to buy it back for the last 16 years. The son wants me to find another O 14 to trade with him. I see the son at that show every year and continue to try and persuade him to sell it back to me. It's a total basket case, but has great value to me. I really enjoy your farm content and restorations. Thank you, Rob.
The two man chainsaws are called a Maul. I worked for a elderly Swedish farmer while i was in my teens. He had two. You didn't tilt the engine. You shut it down, loosen the bolts, turned the blade,and tightened the bolts. I love the show season. Thank you Pete.
Well done, Pete. Thanks For taking us along. Good to see you get a bit of free time for yourself walking around doing what you wanna do… we all need that 👍👍👍
Pete, thanks for taking the time for me to say hi on your way out when i passed by you! You are just as pleasant in person as you are in all your videos! Great recap of the day and you definitely got out to your vehicle just in time! -Nic J.
A lot of great History in your video, Thanks for sharing, our local steam engine show is this weekend I’ll be there baling straw with a an old wire tie baler !! Hoping the rain stays away !!
Thanks for the tour, Pete! I enjoy watching those old machines work. You realize that even with "mechanized muscle" how difficult it must have been, and yet the increase in productivity must have seemed amazing at the time.
Good morning Pete, thank you for taking us along with you to the show. I always love looking and learning about the ol’ days and equipment. The green Oliver tractors remind me of the green tractor from bob the builder. ❤☕️ blessed day and see you next time.
A fire tube boiler. My grandfather was a commercial fisherman on lake superior. One of his fish tugs had a Morse Fairbanks steam engine. It had a unique sound when it was running.
The "Friday" and the "Case" beside it reminds me at the Mercedes-Benz "Renntransporter" from the mid 50's. When other cars drove 60 to 75 mph, the transporter brought racecars and parts to the tracks, if needed at 100 mph. Maybe the Renntransporter was a copy of the idea of these two tractors. :-)
Hey pete Great vidéo and farm show and i love this old school equipement and sound 14:13 Love this sound It's really a shame that it's being lost more and more in France by my home in Alsace, sometimes I've already been to Germany with friends and even as participants 15:58 beast tractor and sound old popping deere tractor
I was very happy you stopped to look at some W series tractors. Always really liked them, very rare where I’m from. Just bought a 44 W4, my first antique tractor
Thank you Pete (this is Ben in N.C.). Suzanne (my bride) and I hope to travel up your way this fall or winter. Don't worry, we'll visit you at the Farmers' Market. This would be an honor for us. Just to shake your hand. Suzanne and I are slowly going through all of your and Hilarie's videos. We spend a hour or two each evening watching your videos. It is very restful for us.
Thanks for taking me along, enjoy this kind of video. When I was a member of NATS ( National Association of Textile Supervisors), we would schedule a meet up at related business, always enjoyed seeing how other companies produced their products.
Great to see you in our area Pete! We attend the WNY Gas and Steam Engine show every year! We were there on Saturday though. Hope you enjoyed your time here. 😊
Great seeing these old machines in working order. I just came back from the Philippines where I was out in the countryside (they call it "the province") and they were cutting 2x8's with a long chainsaw, a chalk line and bare feet standing on the log.
My father and Stepfather were both members, supporters and volunteers of the Alexander steam association. The machinery came from the many industries in Western NY along with items used in the oil fields of PA.
On the Farmall Regulars with the ball bearing mains: Dad told me they had a lifetime warranty. In the mid-50's he had a 1935 or '36 F20 that sludged up one winter due to daily use but not worked hard enough to get the oil warm. The dealer replaced those ball bearings under warranty after 20+ years!
My brother up in Prescot as a couple old hit & miss engines... I'd love to have one but I have no idea what I'd do with it. Love those shows! That old International truck was magnificent!
The Canadiana was parked in port colborne, Ontario off the canal not far from where I grew up. It was meant to be restored as it was originally a ferry that operated between crystal beach ontario and buffalo new york. I believe someone ran out of money and it sat for years. I always thought it had been totally scrapped. I guess someone saved a piece of it and it ended up there somehow. Cool.
Friday Orchard Tractor, built in Hartford Michigan. Designed to take apples from the orchard and go "from Grove to road" with some models achieving road speeds up to 60mph.
Hello from Australia, the sharpening machine was made to sharpen the knife's for a wood thicknessing machine but I've seen them used to sharpen the knife's for a hay bailer I believe it was an international 69
I always go to our steam engine/ tractor shows here in Michigan and love it. Thank you, Pete, for taking me along to one of your shows. Be safe, and God bless.
Thanks for sharing this video, Pete. Always interesting to watch farm equipment and really love those stationary engines. Reminds me of first time I went to the grain elevator with my Dad to sell a load of wheat (3/4 ton 1948 Chev truck, no hoist). The elevator man had to start the engine to load our wheat out of the pit. It was so amazing to watch him start that putt-putt engine. I don't know how big it was or the name, but it had two huge fly wheels and he got the piston over the hump by climbing up on one of the spokes and just with his body weight he got it past and fired the diesel fired. Had to be nimble not to get hurt.
Hello Pete I'm an old farm boy from Central Iowa and we have a antique power show every year first weekend in August not as big as what you are showing and I enjoyed every moment Thanks for sharing another great video
Nice video, interesting stuff for sure! And yes I was pulling for the massey harris pulling. Although my father had Massey Ferguson...had a school mate whose Dad had a Massey Harris, my late wife's Dad had Cockshutt.
Pete I'm glad you finally got the experience to Western New York Gaston steam show in Alexander that is where I go every year I went there this past Saturday in the rain held out for a little bit but thanks for showing us around
What amazes me most about old machines is how the inventor and the manufacturer were able to figure out how they would be designed to work and fulfill their purpose 🤔
That was quite the interesting collection of old machinery. Drachinifel here has a great series of videos on naval steam engines and boilers if that subject piques your interest in older machinery. Vertical Triple Expansion engines powered the Liberty Ships of WW2 even though they were an obsolescent engine type by that point. The designers used that engine type since all the gear cutting industrial capacity for geared turbines was dedicated to warship production.
That is a neat event, showing all the wonderful old machinery. I was tasked with overall boiler maintenance inspections of a company that used horizontal and vertical boilers, both for heat and steam processes and they were a real joy to watch them work and process. That boiler display was great to see, brought back some good memories! Thanks Pete, have a good day.
Looks like a good show, and well-attended. I think you are mistaken on that second IH standalone power engine. It's not a cub -both of my cubs have the manifold on the left side. That one looks like the Continental of about the same size that we had on our McCormick-Deering 50T baler.
Thank you everything was so very interesting stuff I would have never seen I have seen a few things but some of them my goodness thank you for your Channel
Love those old tractors and stuff , they have a great old tractor steam engine show here in NC called the Old Time Threshers reunion in Denton NC about 30 miles form me in July always but that is a far piece for yall enjoyed the video👍
Thank you for showing the Minneapolis-Moline lineup. My great grandfather was a dealer and shop owner in the 50s and 60s so I have a special place in my heart for them,
thanks for taking us to the fair, Pete...it's years since I was at one just northwest of Maitland, where I watched an IH 806, like my farmer let me use in the fields in Hannon, win its class pull...I'd sure like to go to the Binbrook fall fair this year...see some old friends...go on, good guy!
I went to the steam show in Hopewell NY. I'll never be back. The paths are very congested with golf carts to the point you're watching n waiting for them to pass to walk. It was beyond bad
And here I thought you went to the show looking for inspiration and answers for the project you have with Henry and the International... It was fun to watch just the same.

I love these old steam shows. I'm 58 years old and the older I get the more I enjoy it. I especially like those hit and miss engines . Sometimes nostalgia is a good thing.
I am 63 and I enjoy the old steam engines at the fair’s and field days,even the old tractors 🚜

Looks like a fun rally for the mechanically inclined
A lot of great History in your video, Thanks for sharing, our local steam engine show is this weekend I’ll be there baling straw with a an old wire tie baler !! Hoping the rain stays away !!
Great coverage Pete. I felt like I was there with you. What a cool show. I'm only 4.hours away I'll have to go next year!
Thanks, Pete, for the invite.
Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed it. Too bad they did’t have different parts for the truck for sale.
Thanks for the tour, Pete! I enjoy watching those old machines work. You realize that even with "mechanized muscle" how difficult it must have been, and yet the increase in productivity must have seemed amazing at the time.
Good morning Pete, thank you for taking us along with you to the show. I always love looking and learning about the ol’ days and equipment. The green Oliver tractors remind me of the green tractor from bob the builder. ❤☕️ blessed day and see you next time.
I enjoyed it the more because you were taking us around, thanks.
Thanks, Pete, for bringing us along. Nice seeing old stuff still being used.
A fire tube boiler. My grandfather was a commercial fisherman on lake superior. One of his fish tugs had a Morse Fairbanks steam engine. It had a unique sound when it was running.
Thanks for taking us along to the show Pete I enjoyed looking at the machinery of days gone by

Excellent Video Pete :) also nice Show and nice neat tractors to see plus more!
Hey pete Great vidéo and farm show and i love this old school equipement and sound
14:13 Love this sound
It's really a shame that it's being lost more and more in France by my home in Alsace, sometimes I've already been to Germany with friends and even as participants
15:58 beast tractor and sound old popping deere tractor
I was very happy you stopped to look at some W series tractors. Always really liked them, very rare where I’m from. Just bought a 44 W4, my first antique tractor
The little tractor with single front wheel and sickle bar mower is very cool. I'd definitely mow the yard with that.
Hey Pete! Really cool show. Thanks for sharing your day. I would love to have one of those real small tractors with the sickle bar mower.
Very interesting video t there Pete like those old engines in steam engines don't get to see him too often very fun to see thanks for taking us there
Nice hanging out with you at the tractor show 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Good day to all.
I hope the next generation keeps this going, hope we don't lose it. So fascinating , thanks Pete
Thank you Pete (this is Ben in N.C.). Suzanne (my bride) and I hope to travel up your way this fall or winter. Don't worry, we'll visit you at the Farmers' Market. This would be an honor for us.

Oliver, the good "green" tractor 😎
Thanks for taking me along, enjoy this kind of video. When I was a member of NATS ( National Association of Textile Supervisors), we would schedule a meet up at related business, always enjoyed seeing how other companies produced their products.
Hartford, Michigan is 10 mins away from me. Never knew they made tractors there back in the day.
Great to see you in our area Pete! We attend the WNY Gas and Steam Engine show every year! We were there on Saturday though. Hope you enjoyed your time here. 😊
👍

Thank you. Love the old engines! And history too
Been to a few of these over my years in Ontario Pete where I live and yes, always something new. Thanks for the video.
My father and Stepfather were both members, supporters and volunteers of the Alexander steam association. The machinery came from the many industries in Western NY along with items used in the oil fields of PA.
At 6:25 I have a picture of my Dad driving a truck just like that. He worked at the Gypsum mine for about 5 Yrs.
That was a fun visit. Thanks I enjoyed that.
On the Farmall Regulars with the ball bearing mains: Dad told me they had a lifetime warranty. In the mid-50's he had a 1935 or '36 F20 that sludged up one winter due to daily use but not worked hard enough to get the oil warm. The dealer replaced those ball bearings under warranty after 20+ years!
My brother up in Prescot as a couple old hit & miss engines... I'd love to have one but I have no idea what I'd do with it. Love those shows! That old International truck was magnificent!
pretty cool. loved the walk down memory lane as a kid farming.
Very interesting in the variety of machines and ages of these. A lot of machines through the years.Thanks for taking us along.
I live near Hartford, Michigan and I never heard of Friday tractors!
Thanks for showing us around. that is so cool. I like seeing old tractors and equipments.
Really enjoyed this video. Your knowledge of tractors is amazing!
The Canadiana was parked in port colborne, Ontario off the canal not far from where I grew up. It was meant to be restored as it was originally a ferry that operated between crystal beach ontario and buffalo new york. I believe someone ran out of money and it sat for years. I always thought it had been totally scrapped. I guess someone saved a piece of it and it ended up there somehow. Cool.
great way to spend the day! thanks for bringing us along.

Would have liked to see the Miniapolise Moline with the Detroit 371 or 471 engine they were unstoppable
And sound a real beast in the tractor pull
Hello from Australia, the sharpening machine was made to sharpen the knife's for a wood thicknessing machine but I've seen them used to sharpen the knife's for a hay bailer I believe it was an international 69
Old Fairbanks engines I've seen used for powering generators for municipals. Thanks for sharing.
I always go to our steam engine/ tractor shows here in Michigan and love it. Thank you, Pete, for taking me along to one of your shows. Be safe, and God bless.
Back scratcher LOL!!! Good one Pete :-) I need one of those!
Thanks for taking us along!

Great video. We may be thousands of miles apart but your shows are exactly the same as ours. Always great to look round. All the best 🇬🇧.
Awesome video I love going to tractor shows
Thanks for taking us along Pete,really enjoyed it.
Hello Pete I'm an old farm boy from Central Iowa and we have a antique power show every year first weekend in August not as big as what you are showing and I enjoyed every moment Thanks for sharing another great video
Beautiful, thank you. You know you need that International farm truck. Shared
Very interesting. Would be neat to see in person. As always thanks for sharing.
I’m a 74 year old guy who love the old stuff! Thanks for show us all these tractors and steam implements!
Great video. You offer such great variety.
I was surprised you didn't wear a hat.
Nice video, interesting stuff for sure! And yes I was pulling for the massey harris pulling.
Although my father had Massey Ferguson...had a school mate whose Dad had a Massey Harris, my late wife's Dad had Cockshutt.
Glad you like the steam show in my area got to meet you in person love your videos
What a great flashback. I grew up in western NY and my grandfather took me to this show every year as a kid. thanks for sharing
Pete I'm glad you finally got the experience to Western New York Gaston steam show in Alexander that is where I go every year I went there this past Saturday in the rain held out for a little bit but thanks for showing us around
Hello Pete lots of cool tractors and engines. Have a great day thanks your time to video tape.
Great video and it’s nothing like the old steam tractors in motion. Have a great week and look forward to the next video.
My favorite vids from you are the auctions and shows. Love seeing the old stuff. Thanks Pete
Thanks for taking us along with you, Pete. 👍👍✌️
That was a great show!!!

Got several Friday tractors on the family farm here in southwest Michigan.
They made lots of equipment.
Even cherry harvesters.
That cut-away steam engine was really interesting!
It's amazing what kinds of BIG things manage to survive the years. Great video Pete. By the way my first grandchild Peter was born last week.
Thank you, Pete, for taking us along. I really enjoy it. 👍👍
always great content Sir 👍
greetings from Brooklyn NY 😎

Thank you for taking us a long. It is too far for me to try to get to something like that really enjoyed it.
Wow, this is so cool, love it
Loved the show. Thanks for taking us along.
Great video, Pete.
I always look forward to your videos and appreciate the effort. It takes to put these things together. Thank you.
Wow. One of your best shows.
I watch you because your Chanel calms me down
And here I thought you went to the show looking for inspiration and answers for the project you have with Henry and the International... It was fun to watch just the same.
