Also worth seeing are Traction Engines and Showman's Engines both colourfull with lots of brass, they do occaisionally have shows where the enthusiasts bring them out and show them off.

NB
Those pics were taken at the Mt. Plesant IA steam show back in sept.
Just now starting to get a few of them loaded up to photo bucket.

Here is a little 1/4 scale model of a 21/65 Case traction engine.
