Historical Construction Equipment Show

[Freightrain]

Anybody in the Toledo, Ohio area this coming weekend should stop by the show.

Should be pretty cool with ALOT of antique equipment moving dirt around. I was at a smaller show last fall and it is WAY cool. Bunch of guys playing with FULL size Tonks toys [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif[/img]

Draglines, steam shovels, graders, pans, bulldozers [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smokin.gif[/img]

Check it out. I'll be there with the Mack hanging out with friends who actually HAVE equipment to bring. Someday I'll have room in my backyard for something cool like this TOO [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

Just think....race cars, hot rods, Mack truck and a 1950 Bucyrus crane [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif[/img]

Really wish I could make it. The company I work for used to make draglines and grader blades back in the 30's & 40's. The manufacturing plant is still in use today and walking through it is like walking into a museum.

I am a videographer, and filmed the "Big Dig" at the National Pike Steam Gas and Horse association in Brownsville Pa. on Route #40 in 2007. You can view a clip of the video at my website at Video Creations by Jim. The video is about an hour long, and is for sale at the festival. I will be returning to Brownsville to film another video this year, and will be filming at Portersville also. if you want to contact me, just go to my website.
