ENGINE SHOWS
Connie and I enjoy
the smaller engine shows that can be easily
toured in a half day. This is because we
usually have to drive
half a day to get there ;-) Seriously, the
small shows are usually
more informal and the people seem to be a
little more at ease.
The shows we attend are normally in North
Carolina and Virginia.
If you have not attended an engine show,
and are at all interested in
things mechanical, then you should scout
around for any local shows
that feature antique engines and farm
machinery. You will not be
disappointed.
If you are looking for
information on engines and related matters, you
might want
to consider joining the Stationary Engine Mailing List. This
is a group
of enthusiasts from around the world who are willing and able
to help
each other out with information about engines, with the
occasional
bit of
gossip thrown in ;-) To join, simply go to: www.atis.net and click on
the
subscription services link. Follow the instructions from there.
