Wierdest for me was a couple dead hornets that found their way into a steam engine cylinder and could not figure out how to get out.


I am glad I removed the head to clean and oil the upper cylinder before trying to turn or run it.

My 50 boiler that had the heaters removed, had mud dauber nests inside the tubes and the exhaust was plugged with a bit of mud too.
