Antique Tractors Left To Stand The Test Of Time. Will they ever run again?

Some old tractors and implements I have came across in my. travels. Includes A steam traction engine and what appears to be a large trencher. Also in the video are some later model tractors, model t, and threshers. I hate seeing these machines not running but still cool to look at. I hope someday these will be restored to running condition. But time will only tell

lots of steam engines in need of work in southern Ontario both in public and private hands, but the cost of boiler repair or replacement has gone through roof in the last 5 yrs or so

Because Bob Oliver is no longer doing the work.

the steam tractor looks to be in good shape

im not a boiler expert, but from what I seen it wasn't to bad. I Didn't see and rust holes. Did notice the steam cylinder had a crack other than that not too bad

the steam engine could of been a straw burner. They usually had a brick arch in there for straw but when it got old or damaged it was taken out and they just burnt wood or coal. kind of an odd duck seeing that brand out west.

Thanks for the info. Not many geisers out west?
