Lighting up Reynolds Museum's own mighty 1911 Nichols & Shepard 30-98 steam traction engine for the first time in the 2017 season. This massive behemoth is affectionately known as "Big Nick" and is one of the most powerful steam tractors operating in Canada today. With a full head of steam on this traction engine delivers a whopping 96 horsepower and roughly 1250ft/lbs of torque at the flywheel from it's two cylinder simple expansion engine, drawbar horsepower is rated at 30. The steam engine makes use of the famous Stephenson twin eccentric valve gear system to control engine direction and variable steam cutoff. This tractor is fitted with a solid drive pin to bypass the clutch under heavy load, locking the crankshaft directly to the output drive gears when heavy traction work is required such as plowing, this prevents clutch damage due to excessive slippage. A huge thanks must be extended to the Reynolds Alberta Museum for lending out their vintage machinery for our group to gain steam hours towards our heritage steam operators certificates.

My grandfather told me stories about how he worked for a man that had a thresher machine and it run off a steam engine. He said they traveled around the country to different farms doing jobs. He had some great stories. Miss my grandfather and all the stories he told me. He was born in 1897 passed in 1987

I was about 8 or 9 the old farmer down the road had one of these in the shed.He would get it out occasionally and drive it around the property . We (my older brother) would ride our bikes to his place. he would always ask what are you boys doing here. I remember distinctly his like trying to be mean about it but damn proud we were there inquiring about his pride and joy.Then he would always take us around the lane. I think I was the only kid that took any interest in his machine . don't remember any kids around there ever so I think he enjoyed the time we spent on that ole beast also. I was about 14 or 15 when he died I remember the auction day sold everything ashtrays to the farm equipment then the next day the farm. I remember the feeling of seeing the ole steam tractor being winched on the drop deck trailer. broke my heart that I would never get another ride with him. my first experience with death of someone I was close to.

@Troy Hendrickson I second that. It's all about efficiency. Torque won't give you much if you can't use it effectively. That's why we nowadays use less powerful machines, because that huge torque is rarely needed. Most of the times you can split the job and still get it faster than with old-time equipment. Don't get me wrong there - I like those machines as well; it's just progress. Newer machines requires less maintenance and are way more safer and easier to operate, not mentioning fuel efficiency.
@Bvajen
@Bvajen 3 жыл бұрын
​ @Kwaq84 Totally agree on the efficiency of new machines and safety, but the maintenance side is interesting if you consider software and electronics to be maintenance related. There can be a lot of issues with those and they're generally harder to fix than the purely mechanical components of a traction engine. I was reading the other day about how if you own a John Deere tractor you apparently don't even have the right to attempt to fix software/chip related issues yourself--there's a number of lawsuits over that currently. Technology certainly progresses forwards and brings improvements, but as usual it has some unintended downsides as well.

@@eniotnayssaneb3442, because off mass and gearing, besides steam trains usually are built more for speed. If you look at steam trains the pistons are linked directly to the wheels thus making them more for speed, but that doesn't mean they don't have torque, just look at how slow they can run with barely breaking a sweat. But if you look at tractors they have gears, thus multiplying torque created by the engine. For gears just a ratio of 2:1 will double the engines torque output in theory , so by looking at the size of those gears on those tractors, you can imagine these things could pull a tree right out of the ground.

I feel like a lot of people blame huge tractors for the dust bowl, which isn't true. In reality it was the lack of cover crops, improper irrigation, and improper fertilization. Instead of building oil pipelines they could build seawater pipelines connected to water distillers powered by wind farms or things like that, and use old steam power or ethanol for tractors like this which still aren't obsolete, and farming would be infinitely sustainable and organic theoretically, but everyone would have to commit to doing it the right way....

I respectfully disagree. Huge amounts of soul to steam, but huge amounts of prep work followed by 3+ hours from striking the match to working the fields, vs. turn a key and go. 6% efficiency for a steam engine vs 30+% for a modern diesel engine, very little maintenance, and gobs and gobs of horsepower. 9000ft lbs of steam power is great, but the tractor that can only pull half as much but does it 3x faster will have more acreage done at the end of the day. They really just can't be compared, the profits on a newer machine are light-years ahead.

Just watch steam tractors in a tractor pull, they're slow as crap but they will pull that tractor all the way out of the arena and into the next county!

It's alive!! Torque, well over one thousand ft. Lbs. Mechanically complex. In theory very simple. BOiling water = steam and away you go dragging the earth behind you.

Thing is I have a fictional version of the history of this in my mind - from films and books and stuff. It's fascinating - none of us know or can know the real version. So what tasks would they have been used for, and how long would they last? Amazing stuff. 1911 - so in England these would have been slowly converted into the first MarkI-IV Tanks for use in WW1!

Игорь Лапулькин вы заблуждаетесь, эти паровые машинки были универсальными, их как паровоз затопили и воды налили ( только подкидывай и подливай), а потом они пыхтят месяц и два и три, эти штуки ещё и молотилки крутили - вон теми барабанами с верху, и всякую хрень приводили в движение. Это просто сейчас на таких выставках , как вы написали, затопили раскирагазили и все, так что тогда это не сейчас.

I strongly disagree with what the gentleman said at 7:19 regarding Injectors in the lifting position. The water doesn't always have to be kept closed when the injector is not running. That is only true when the injector is in a flooding position so the water in the tank doesn't just drool all over the ground when the injector's not pumping. In the lifting position, once you find it's sweet spot on the water valve to where she feeds dry after you've started it for the first time that day, you can leave the water open and when you need to put water in all you need to do is crack the steam open, let her prime, then open the steam all the way to give her the beans. What he did, leaving the water closed and giving it steam can overheat the injector and then it won't want to lift at all. Fortunately since it's a good old Penberthy she picked right up, but it's not a good habit to get into.

How long does it take to build the steam up to begin to move her? I guess what I’m asking is back in the old days, how long did it take a farmer to get it out to the field from the time he got to the tractor. Could a farmer start the fire in the firebox first then go around greasing and checking everything while it was building steam?
