SteamFest 2018 Tasmania Australia. Part 4

in #steamfest7 years ago

The next part of the SteamFest 2018 Tasmania Australia. I hope you enjoyed the first,second and third parts and continue to enjoy this next installment of our past history.

SteamFest located in Sheffield Tasmania brings history to life with one of the biggest collections of working steam machinery in Australia, steam train rides, pioneering skills such as blacksmithing, historic machinery like traction engines, steam powered threshers and rock crushers showing how things were done in the past, including vintage cars, tractor pulling competition, old wares for sale etc.
I will endeavour to bring SteamFest to you through photography. I hope you will enjoy following me along for the day at SteamFest. This will be a multi post edition. Thank you for looking.

Wow these are lovely.... Expecting to see and know more about steam fest.

Nice photos

Some awesome equipment. Great photos! Wondering if a person needs a steam ticket to run up those engines?

Yes in Australia you need a steam ticket to operate any steam powered machine.

Nice post brother thanks for always educating us because this equipment I never knew about it, and never seen it before, thanks for sharing.

Your welcome mate.

The Mercedes 280 CE is one great and classic car. Those tractors are really so rare. Thanks for the steam fest show pics.

Wow awesome post. Are they all still operational or just display?

It's amazing, we're looking into the past with these relics.

Around 95% of items there are fully operational.
