Hot Air Engine show at Greenville, Ohio
« on: July 13, 2021, 06:21:50 am »
We had a great time and good weather at the Greenville, Ohio "Power of the Past" show this past weekend; the show featured hot air engines this year. Here you can see most of the hot air engines including a rare Thermo Engine Co. twin which I just finished restoring:

A wonderful video.

So many cool and rare engines.

The Thermo is awesome!

Is it the only known working example?

Thanks Charlie,
The Thermo twin engine is the only one to show up so far--it came from rural Washington state no less. The Thermo Engine Co. also made little toy hot air engines which are not uncommon (there's also one in the video).
