The Hamilton Museum of Steam and Technology ....
Built to last, and it has ....
These photos are of parts of one of the steam rotary beam engines at the museum.
As you can see they're in absolutely beautiful condition, and a credit to the people who are maintaining it.
One of the engines is run every day - as long as someone is there to look at it! Why not you????
I want to go back again, that's for sure. Let me rephrase that - I will go back!
This link will take you to a webpage by UMA Engineering Ltd, who refurbished both engines to their current pristine condition.

It also has great content about the history of the engines, and their renovation.
