<div dir="auto">Yes - I recall meeting with the folks in Bristol and getting the 'cooks' tour of the museum. We suggested that they bring this engine to East Greenwich so we could see if we could get it running again.</div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, Oct 20, 2022, 8:49 PM Randall Snow <<a href="mailto:pleaseleaveamessage4me@gmail.com">pleaseleaveamessage4me@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">Guys,<div><br></div><div>Five years back, on a Thursday in early May, a team of volunteers from the Hereshoff Museum brought one of these steeple engines to the museum for us to help them with. It had been found in a warehouse there, presumably not having run for many decades if ever. Myself, Warren, George, Lou, and I think Tim, spent a fair amount of time getting it going. I joke all the time about the older and smarter guys stepping backwards when someone asks for volunteers. This was the day that actually happened. The crazy-haired young kid was thrown to the fore to try and explain what was what. And the best part, it was all captured on video. One 10 minute video attached and another short clip within their blog. <a href="https://herreshoffsteam.wordpress.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Hereshoff blog about the build</a>.
