When I was growing up in the 60's, there were still workshops that used stationary motor and belt drive. "It's cheap power and why destroy something that worked well," said a manager at a small furniture factory where I lived at the time.
That Crossley vertical is a gem, as was the model version. I wonder how small it can be made??? The weight of the piston and rack assembly would be limiting factor, hmmm. Pencil and paper please. Cheers Eric
As someone who is studying Computer Aided Drafting, I'm impressed with how they designed these without computers. Seems like things were a lot harder back then.
Nice machinery, but not much information about what we're looking at. The museum must have some descriptive signage, type, year of manufacture, horsepower, used for? Nice collection of exhibits, good videography.
Schlechte Kameraführung. Jede Maschine bitte von allen Seiten, mit schönen Details, jeweils eine Weile beobachten, damit man auch die Funktion erkennen kann. Dazu bitte auch die Herstellernamen und Typen. Sonst interessant.
Chuffed to have found this on youtube. Now I've got to visit!!! Superb. Would have been nice to have a bit of info for the enthusiastic beginners though.
Great video! I come back and watch it about once a year. I'm in the US and old, so I'll never get to Anson.
Mechanical marvels, especially for their age, that are mesmerizing to watch . More like art in motion. Thanks !

what type of engine is that at 12:05? a curious looking one... almost has a piledriver rhythm sound to it
An Otto-Langen atmospheric gas engine built under licence by Crossley. It is made to run on town gas, and has external flame ignition.

Salute to those who worked hard to make these wonderful machines.I love old machines.

Wouw, a wonderworld of engines! I want to go there!!
Superb Preservation, not Restoration! Pleased the Mid Brunswick Green paint stays in the tin !
A good video, it was a pleasure to se and hear some of the amazing engines you have exhibited .
Does the museum have a Marsden Engine from Heckmondwike?

Great job on this! Nice to get a good look at everything. Usually people rush to get through. Thanks for posting!
Fully satisfied by watching.... Acknowledge by heart the hard work of the maintenance team. Only passionate men can do this. 👍

Great video nothing like seeing old school how the old timers used to get er done, no computers.
que magnificas maquinas donde es este museo para visitarlo gracias
11:51 - that an Otto-Langen? Now that's something you certainly don't see every day...
Es ist einfach nur schön den alten Maschinen zuzusehen.Dankeschön !
If the makers of these engines could experience today; I think they would be astounded.

That second engine Vickers Petter sounded like a bloody techno record, the guy was even shaking his head to the rhythm! . :))
It was like a mechanical heartbeat.
Very nice video,thanks.
One of the best videos I've ever seen on engines. Wow thanks! Subscribed. Some super unique and very interesting mechanics there!
Heck yeah! This was riveting! I watched it twice. Man great video.
And a dicky snifter valve on Crossley's patented igniter. Who would infringe that?
If an engine builder needs a valve mechanism, some guy will find a new way to build one.
sounds better than some of the lame music heard on youtube vids.
thanks for sharing.....
Great video so neat to see those old engines up and running!! Thankyou!!
Proper job!!!
It's amazing how quiet some these are.
Vielen Dank, Techniken & Wissenheit.......
Straordinario
Hat er der Zug oben.....?
Very good
Oder der Roboter.....?
👌😎👉👍🤗👍🎄
Pan it S-L-O-W-L-Y!
Sorry I think I was 13 when I done this video

Where is this magnificent museum?
In which country?

What is the price of visiting the museum?
Near Stockport in the North West of the UK
@@neilanyon4792 Why did the UK have all the cool stuff. I'm American so where can I go to see stuff like this?
