A couple pictures from the Hesston Steam Show and sneak peeks from inside the enginehouse

Got there early today and managed to get into the engine house today before they closed the doors. After years of visiting it for many years I never realized they had 2 Porter 2-6-0s, I think they are the same model as Argent Lumber's Porter. Also managed to snag reproduction Lima Shay catalogs and part guides from a vendor for under $10 at the flee market, it is really worth the visit if you are ever in the area of northern Indiana.
