<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John Anthony, post: 1792550, member: 42773&quot;]They had a tractor parade at the fair, and I was hoping they would stoke the thing up. I mean, when&#039;s the last time you saw a steam-powered tractor driving around? But the owner told me it wasn&#039;t road-worthy, and if you looked at it closely, you could see various hairline cracks in the main cylinder and piston rods. If you tried to start the engine, probably it would just fall to pieces.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>BTW, that small engine on the side of the main engine was used to power a threshing machine. You backed the tractor up to the thresher, then attached a belt to the small engine wheel to transfer power to the thresher. Pretty clever, eh?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
