Went to the annual show two days over the weekend. A well run good show. Lot's of stuff to see. The things that really impressed me were the old steam engines that were made in the early 1900's that were in factories and packing plants.---Tee This engine was in the old Rath packing plant in Waterloo Ia.

My Son pulled it in one class and took a pic from the drivers seat!
