Yankee Steam-Up 2010 Videos

[vascon2196]

Hello everyone,

The Yankee Steam-Up in Rhode Island on Saturday was fantastic. It was held at the New England Wireless and Steam Museum. It was sunny and warm and lots of exibitors and spectators showed up. I set up camp around 7:00am, ate some donuts, and drank some coffee....it was going to be a long day. It is only my second time to a model engine show and I have to say it's really nice being around other individuals who enjoy the hobby. And when a 60-something year old highly skilled machinist stopped by my geared engine and was impressed, it was a good feeling. I took lot's of videos this year and posted them on You Tube...enjoy.

The compound with the feed pumps driven by a scotch yoke belongs to a master machinist and engineer named Don Favel.

He's a good friend.....did he bring the tug it supposed to go in?

Sorry Dave I wouldn't know....these are the only videos I have. If it's not in the videos it might not have been there.

The steam bicycle was the work of Ray Hasbrouck. It was his last major project before he passed away.

The Mery engine is by Norm Jones, a past president of the New England Model Engineering Society.

Sorry I missed the meet Ron, I would have liked to have seen Ray's bike first hand.
