The 71st R & T Threshermen's Reunion is the 2nd Oldest show in the Country to be held again August 14th to the 17th in 2019 featuring Minneapolis Moline and Water Pumping Equipment. The 20th Annual Empire Expo will be held by The Empire Tractor Owners Club in conjunction with the 71st Annual Threshermen’s Reunion.
Justin brought out his 1906 20 hp fairbank Morse Type N hit and miss engine. It's a "Special Electric" model with heavy flywheels to run a generator ( which will be hooked up later and operational).
The battery is a five cell nickel iron Edison battery to power the ignition system.
