  Great video Nick, you had a good vantage point,  I especially liked watching the "Dozers" maneuver through the turn.

  An older friend of mine tells me all the time how many steam engines he used to scrap

  We watched a few of them load up on trailers at the end of today, would have made some good video footage, but I'm sure it was bad enough for them having an audience (a few of them telling them how they should be doing it), so I kept the camera off them.

• I was looking at the "forum stats" and couldn't believe the number of views that this thread has, so I dug up some more pictures from the shows previous years...
  
  Here's some of the models that were there in '08, unfortunately I have not seen these at the show for quite some time...

• Found this one on a bus full of toys. Pictures are not the best as it was in a case, but then I spotted the tag... engine built by my grandpa's cousin 
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  I believe this guy displays at the Baraboo show every year
  
  
  
  
  
  And the last two, note the tiny boiler/engine next to the air line... world's smallest MEC1?

• I saw the field of orange. AC was so innovative. For gas tractors, if I was going to get one, I would get an Allis Chalmers. The WD45 is an amazing tractor.
