This old stuff sits around the local museum here. Not sure what any of it is but I've always liked old rusted machinery.
Tractor or something
have no clue...

I know what they are. I used to know EVERYTHING but I was about...oh? 17 then. I forgot ALL of it, so, never mind. I have no idea what they are, but the photos are very nice!!!
I like the old stuff too. Not a lot of it around, except for the museums and not too many people left who know what it is...thanks for sharing. Cheryl

Very nice shots! The first one is a steam engine that ran farm machinery. The second one was made so they could set up a work station. Run it with a smaller belt. Some thing like a sawmill. The steam engine was hook to the big side. No clue on the other.:)

I would consider converting these photographs to Black and White, the subjects certainly lend themselves to the process.

Agree - crop 'em tight and black & white (with a dash of sepia) - delicious! ;)
The first one is a steam tractor, not sure what brand. The second appears to be part of a rock crusher. Have no idea about the third one.

those are really nice Hal, thanks for posting them. That was some 'high tech' machinery in its time.
