Winter at the Kean Show Grounds! (PICS)

Are you going to leave the steamer out uncovered??? Please don't. BTW... did you make sure there is no water- dew, moisture, collecting in the boiler or valve gear??? Should be petcocks and drain valves in low spots... you got an owners manual for that thing?!? Except for the white stuff, all looking' good!
 
For now the Steam Engine has to sit outside. My building has cement throughout and it is not strong enough to hold the weight of the engine. There is no water in the engine. It is undergoing repairs at the moment. I am taking the boiler jacket off as well as and all the old plumbing and valves to put on new. And Yes I do have a manual. By the way the cars will be in the shed shortly, just have to move some stuff around to fit it all in!

Thanks for the replies!

I don't know about the winds where you are, but I like my poly carports. You might have to raise the legs a bit... or, do you have a source for used up billboards? That is tough stuff. I know steam locomotives have to have the stack capped well when not in use, and rain getting under the boiler jacket into the asbestos is bad, but sounds like you are beyond that. Good. I was joking about the manual! You really have one? wow. Great museum there, keep up the good work.
