Not many tractors this year, but I believe every steam engine in the area was there!

Wow! Now that is a real parade! Sure wish I could see that in person!
Evidently steam power was just not popular here in N Texas. Very few survivors.
The only tractors in our parade yesterday was a Farmall M and a riding lawnmower!

Oly, this is Cumming, GA, about 60 miles North of Atlanta. It was once a booming farm country in the early 1900s. Always had a large steam population. At one time we were home to over 50 of these beast, but some have left as their owners passed and children didnt want them.
Most live in a huge shed built by the city on the fairgrounds in town, so it keeps from having to transport them. They are babied by their owners, and the city even has a paid inspector with ultrasound equipment to keep them inspected to meet the state safety requirements. Massive quiet giants!

Years ago our local AC dealer 9 Dad and 2 sons) had one and it was kept in the dealer ship where it could be seen but it was also used when needed. Do not know what happened to it They also had a WC with with the wask engine, don't know what happened to it either. Dealer ship closed before end of AC after Dad and one son passed and I highly suspect te second sin also past years ago. I think they plowed snow on sidewalke in their small town with the AC G and loader but I never got there after a snow. I have seen a few at shows with the loader.
