maintenance



Everywhere you look at the steam powered threshing event men are stoking and oiling and greasing and performing all types of maintenance duties. It seems the large engines require a lot of attention.

This young man works on the giant wheel of a tractor and represents the next generation that will be called upon to take up the task of maintaining these pieces of history. I've heard of golf widows, do you imagine there are steam engine widows? I'm sure of that.
