The Great Oregon Steamup
| The Great Oregon Steamup,
frequently simply called "Brooks," is an enormously popular event in the
Pacific Northwest. The pleasant show grounds, a short hour's drive south
of Portland, Oregon on I-5, feature a wide variety of events: Engine displays,
tractor pulls, truck museum, firefighting museum, steam threshing, horse plowing,
tractor parade, traditional tractor pull, and the Willow Creek 7½-inch model
railroad, a great flea market, and more!
