This is just amazing. I am a little short on sleep, but that's the only word I can think of that adequately summarizes this video. Those engines look to be at least a hundred years old and they look to have been sitting on those masonry bases since they were new. I tried looking for information based on the nameplate but found nothing.

  1. Most of those are Ruston Hornsby engines form England, installed by englishmen (or scotsmen) to precise dimensions. .

    They survive only because the Natives pretty well can't break them. As long as they have water, oil, and fuel they will run.

    I think the nameplates you saw were the importers.

    Lots of those old engines still around. I own several US makes that were made before 1920.
