This steam traction engine was rated by Minneapolis at 20 horsepower and has an ASME code boiler.
It last worked in a sawmill in Wausan, Wisconsin during the 1940's. It was moved to Oceanside, California about 1955 and was filmed in the movie "The Gentle Persuasion" (1956) with Gary Cooper and Dorthey McGuire. It stayed locally until the 1970's when it was taken apart for restoration and was not put back together until it was bought by its new owner in 1995.
Owned and restored by Dean Alling
