Crocker Wheeler 1-1/2 or 2 H.P. (I.D. plate is mis stamped) Direct Current motor, Bi-polar. I am running this on two 12 volt truck batteries wired in series which equals about 24 volts. Just runs a little slower than it would on 115 volts. And I do not need to use a starter, which it would have had originally. I weighed this in at 260 lbs.

I was at the showgrounds yesterday (Feb. 7-2026) working in the machine shop with a couple of the guys. (Dan & Paolo). We were surprised to see only about a half inch of ice on top of a half inch of snow, on the roads. Much less than the western shore. We still have 3 to 5 inches on the ground. Got this photo of ice slowly sliding off the roof of the kitchen. It was once soft enough to move but than cold enough to freeze in a curled position after leaving. A memory. It was frozen when I got this picture. The last photo was the road leaving the grounds.

Rustin Hornsby, 12-1/2 HP Electric Lighting Engine, spinning the 15,000 watt G.E. Edison Dynamo. I purchased the engine in restored condition. I have done some machine work since I have had it. I restored the Dynamo myself. This is my favorite engine & accessory combination. The engine originally came out of Sweden. The Dynamo was used someplace in southern New York state. I have not been able to confirm exactly where. I am running this today at our yearly Road Tractor show. A nice event that is becoming more popular every year.

Columbus 25 HP Cam stopper engine. Running very smooth today at our road tractor show 11-8-25, on propane. This is a hit & miss engine. When the flyball governor is satisfied, the mechanism it controls, stops the outer end of side shaft with the exhaust cam holding the exhaust valve open. It inhales & exhales through the exhaust system allowing the piston to freely move through the four cycles. When the engine slows, the governor catches this, reconnects the mechanism allowing the exhaust valve to close. Fuel is drawn in and it fires again. It goes through this process over and over to control engine speed. This engine originally powered a machine shop line shaft. Today it has an easier life being displayed to the public and run on occasion.
