This 3 cylinder Fairbanks Morse Y was up and running - check the audio file. It is nearly the same as the one we found at Nunda, NY. |

These Ames Iron Works products caught my eye because they are from Oswego, NY where I lived and worked for 23 years. The factory buildings stood vacant for decades with no sign of the magnificent old steam engines that they once created. Here, at the opposite end of the country, we can see their heritage. The unit on the left is a direct coupled steam engine/generator for 110 volts DC. The unit on the right (shown here for continuity) ran a mine at Idaho City, ID. Visit the GALLERY for engravings of this and other engines! |
