Just a little note to remind anyone who might be contemplating a trip to the mid-Atlantic region this summer. The 70th annual reunion of the Rough & Tumble Engineers will take place at Kinzers, PA August 15-18, 2018. A huge event, with more than 100 steam tractors, stationary engines, a belt-driven machine shop, lots of gas tractors, many stationary natural gas, diesel and gasoline engines, etc. Sawmill and shingle mill, too. Steam shovels, too. Not far from the Strasburg Rail Road and the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania, either.
