This is amazing. I LOVE stuff like this! I'd never have thought that one of these could be operated by vacuum. Thank you so much for posting!

Awesome video. Love the detail on how it operates, showing everything. This is an engineering marvel. Pre solid works.... WOW.

Nice to see this. Thanks for putting the video up. Never seen something that operates on vacuum like this does. I guess it's pre-electro mechanical.

So basically its a mechanical computer?
I suppose if you do study the races again and again you maybe able to work out the winning patten as its pseudo random ?

Different horses can be programmed (by moving air hoses around) so that when a given horse wins, the piano roll is automatically reversed and moves in the opposite direction. With this added feature, the outcome is impossible to predict, no matter how many races you watch. Especially if the owner moved the hoses periodically.
