Thanks for bringing the show to us, Bruce!
The Huber traction engine with the return flu boiler is a real oddity. It is short and requires extra attention to the steering. It is near impossible to see where the front wheels are from the drivers position. There is one narrow line of site over the rear wheel and in between and under some of the other hardware on that side. You have to bend down and to one side to see this making it so if you don't know it you would need to have someone tell you or have a spotter walking next to you. I learned this when I had the opportunity to operate a Huber at Dudley Diebold's tractor museum show. I got to teach this to two operators at Ken Eder's show a year or two later. Until I came along they were taking turns walking and spotting.
