Key words being with good maintenance. When properly maintained a steam engine can last a VERY long time, but they're always slowly tearing themselves to pieces and you gotta keep up with them to prevent them from falling apart completely, or worse.
the fact is that this tractors are not simple, robust nor reliable... plus they need as much time maintaining them as working with them. They are fun, yes, but they never were popular and only relativelly usefull (They were used more as a mobile steam engines for machines, that for real tractor work)

I always expect these machines to be lumbering brutes only capable of speeds suitable for fieldwork in the Prairies, but these guys are moving at a pretty decent clip. These things must have seemed like spaceships in the 1880's blazing up the road as fast as a horse while doing the work of twelve.
I've been down the rails in locomotives at this height, but it's kinda' funny seeing the road from this perspective. You guys are at about the same elevation as you are in a freight locomotive, just chillin' goin' down the road.
Something i like remarking to my engineer about tbh. We usually drive faster than the tracks we run on are rated for (49 mph) but yet when you are moving that fast it feels alot faster just due to the height. Like 49 in my car compared to 49 in the cab is a world of difference
That was amazing to see and hear. (And you had the bar hooked up pretty good going down the road. She pulls pretty good!) Nice to see in this day and age.
