Steam-Era Show 2011, Milton, Ontario

[lazylathe]

Hi All,

Just back from the steam show, my first!
Wish it was a bit cooler and not the scorching 35+ degree C heat!!

Lots of stuff to see and a lot of stuff for sale.
Lots is sounds and smells and the 12 noon whistle blowing was pretty cool!!

See the attached photo album of all the tractors, hit and miss and steam engines!
I did not take pictures of all of them, there were too many!

Quite a few model engines too.
I was hoping for an up close and personal encounter with a Rider-Ericsson but there were none there...

Anyway, hope you enjoy the pictures!!!

It's a pleasure guys!

The wife and i had a good time out there!
She did get a bit hot and sweaty and then all the smoke did not help...
I did not mind it!!! ;D

I will never forget the sound of all the hit and miss engines running!!!
It was amazing!!!

Would love to go with someone in the know!
This time was just looking in awe at all the restorations!

I was at the show Saturday and even talked the wife into attending ;D

It sure was hot, but I picked up a PMR 3B steam engine kit to keep me busy this coming winter.
