  • There were no diesel engines in 1880....

  • Great sound on that one, very nice.

  • propane , see the accumulator ? They used to run on nat-gas from the field it is pumping .

  • Running it on diesel fuel or used motor oil?

  • I know of 2 other Bessemer conversions on Farrar and Trefts. They are beautiful pieces of engineering. They both have the s-spoked flywheels. They are located in Indiana and Ohio. Thanks again for sharing. I love hearing it run!
