Steam Engines

About 4 years ago, I decided that steam was really cool, and started learning as much as I could manage.  Sure, I rode the Wilmington and Western excursion line when I was young and went to Kinzer's, but the whole silent power thing didn't really hit home for a good while.  Now I enjoy the hobby, and have learned so much and met so many very great people.  I have a few steam engines that range from model/desktop size to 10 inch bore by 12 inch stroke.  I have an old Orr & Sembower 2Hp boiler that I fire on occasion instead of running on compressed air.

Here are some pictures if you are interested.
