national pike – 2Eight Photography

Moving the Earth

Today we can take a look at some of the earth movers of times gone by. Yesterday I posted about the Ford Model A at the car show at the National Pike Steam, Gas, & Horse Association show. Today we’ll take a look at some of the machinery that was there for you to enjoy.

As I mentioned yesterday the show is the largest working show and that means you not only get to see this equipment but you get to watch it being used. And you can get up close and personal with the equipment as well. Little ones spend their time playing in the dirt, then they grow up and go to this show to relive their childhood.

If your interested in this show they have 2 every year and the next one is August 11-13, 2017. They are featuring Gravely and International Harvester among others. More information can be found at their website www.nationalpike.com

From an Era Long Ago

Tonights post is a couple of photos from a Steam and Gas Engine show that I attend every Year. The show is called the National Pike Steam, Gas, and Horse Association and they put on one of the largest working show in the United States. You can actually watch these neat old pieces of equipment running and moving dirt.
