Post by: Postie Roy on April 28, 2019, 03:58:40 am

I am possibly visiting my Brother in law in northern Indiana Granger from the UK in late August to early September are there any recommendations for any steam shows or fairs  about that time please.

There is a gas engine show with a huge flea market (sell and swap) in Portland, Indiana late August. One of the largest steam shows is mid August at Rough and Tumble in Kinzers, PA.
Back to Indiana.... there are often steam items for sale at Portland.

Have a great trip!

The Portland In. show is very large (recommend renting a golf cart ahead of time) I have been to it a few time & during the show days golf carts are allowed to run all over town.
