Steam and Internal Cumbustion live in harmony one fall day.

Took a ride this past weekend with Joe in his beautiful 1969 FuryIII to Rhode Island to attend the Yankee Steam Up followed by an American Car show in the next town over.





The Steam up is an event I had heard about from my friend Scott a couple years back and have wanted to go since. People bring homemade steam engines to set up and run on display. Some run on actual steam provided by the organizers and some run off compressed air. The museum itself has a collection of steam engines big and small from the late 1800's on display and running. Other interesting things on site that day, homemade steam powered motorcycle, 2 steam powered boats, a radial airplane motor in the back of a pickup truck that was trying to start, mountain bike with honda 35cc motor with tons of handmade inventions by Steve ridden from Dedham Ma.
