The Case is a heavy engine to pick up and put on a shelf. Put pallet on forklift, put Case on pallet, picked it up and rolled it in place.

I am thoroughly impressed by your collection Randy, thank you sooo much for sharing !!!

...and those last 4 pics certainly rang all the bells LOUDLY here.

A couple of questions for the right side Oakley cabinet:

What is going on with the steamchest, on the extremely early 4 bolt powerplant (#10 style) to the right on the top shelf?
Seems something is missing, or is it the lighting that tricks my eyes?

Whatīs the story of the (70īs?) #10, having robinīs egg blue windings on a hammertone painted generator?

Finally, would you share a picture of your riveted boiler #5 at the bottom shelf?
Cheers
Jan

Not sure what you are seeing on the 10. Heres a closer picture of it. I know its missing a screw or plug on the side of steam chest. This engine is in good mechanical condition but realy bad cosmetically. Is in line to be restored soon.

Not sure about the Ribbon egg blue on generator. The fellow i got it from said he had had it for years and it was that way when he got it. The wire on armature is cloth covered.
