National Threshers 79th Reunion June 2024

Join us as we explore the National Threshers 79th Annual Reunion at the Fulton County Fairgrounds in Wauseon, Ohio. Held every year at the end of June, 40 to 50 steam traction engines can be seen doing all sorts of jobs from the turn of the century. If you like belt work, this is the video for you. Many engines, large and small, can be seen on the sawmill, power eater, and Baker fan putting on a show for the crowd. Spark shows in the evening and a small clip of the steam engine games is included in the video. Enjoy! Please like and subscribe or follow us on Facebook!

Awesome stuff! Always nice to see some monumental beasts like that chugging along.
Also, if I may, give got a quick question about one of your older videos. Your video on the ACL 6 chime is the only one I've ever been able to find, but unfortunately the quality was a bit on the lower resolution side. Would it be possible for you to get some more modern images of it, or perhaps show off a up close video of it off/on steam? I'd love to be able to pick it over and compare it to the one we have at our museum nearby.
Much appreciated, and thank you for the content!

@joeman1437 I would, but it belongs to my father. The whistle top is featured in the book "Yonder comes a Train". There are several photos of the whistle top in that book. I am reluctant to share photos of it without his permission, as we have been bothered in the past of random people calling or messaging me for it's sale. I hope you understand and thank you for the kind words.

@@drpeerless1 Completely understood, and I do thank you for pointing me in the right direction, as now I have something to compare with. I hope you have a great upcoming week, and once again, thank you!
