I don't think you can find one as big or bigger. But we have a real nice show. The Rock River Thresheree is Labor Day weekend, starting friday until monday. Just north of Janesville WI in southern Wisconsin(1/2 hour north of WI/IL border. Convienent access from I-90.We ussually have 15 to 20 steamers and 400 or so tractors, from old until about 1960. We have almost continuous threshing, corn binding, silo filling, corn shelling, and plowing.
There is a sawmill going, a pile driver( if you have never seen an 18"diameter tree driven into the ground, you gotta see it.), a train, and our museum of industry. The museum features 6 stationary steam engines(all running)of different sizes. The largest has a 20' flywheel! We also have a large collection of large diesel engines. Flea-market, camping on the grounds, good food, bands at nightand a big parade every day also highlight our event. For more information E-mail me and i will give you a call to answer any other questions. Hope to see you there
