This certainly continues to be an amazing thread!

So many things that I've never seen, nor even heard of, before!!!

Bet you are really glad you went to that sale!

WOW .... and a big Sipp too ..... Double WOW!!

I think that third engine would be a total WOW also, if it was seen alone, without such unbelievable competition!!!

I actually missed the sale and was only bidding on the online lots while pitching bundles at a threshing bee :D

It was a 2 day estate sale with 2 rings going and was a 2 generation collection. The woods was full of boilers and full size engines, probably 100 whistles on the sale.
