vhprs Posted September 19 Share Posted September 19 Being a Pre-16 gasoline guy....steam is all new to me. I feel like I am in the bottom of a deep dry well looking up at the sky. I have spent hours on the web. I come up with a couple of engine pictures of "partial" set ups....a couple of rudimentary pictures with simple labels ...i.e..."Air Tank"..."muffler"..."blow off valve"...etc. Wow....is that all that is out there ? Has anyone done any "in depth" instructions..or..guides on these wonderful machines ? Sure would like to find that source and re-build this part of history....and/or....Going to Hershey ...anyone or place I might contact ? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ben Popadak Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 facebook.com/groups/1145303422635239 You could join the Locomobile Steam facebook group. I believe Thursday??? at Hershey, the Stanley Museum has a little get together at their booth. Several dozen of the most hardcore steam collectors out there.
