I always loved the smell and the sounds of those old steamengines since the first time I seen one... and how quiet they are when they are in idle mode and when they get down to working, the life in them. Here are several links below...
This link is youtube link to many vids.
This vid should have links to a whole lot of other links to this engine...

I could talk about the 150 for days from the 260 some hp to 8k torque to the fact it pulls up to 50 bottoms when originally tested. Holds 600 gallons of water and 70 tons of coal it's a real Earth shaker it'll be at rollag next year you won't want to miss. Thousands of hours spent building and designing and one million dollars . Definitely something that shapes our time we helped deliver parts for this might beast https://youtu.be/Bn6pYh44f6Y
