Bolton Steam Museum

[@ukmwg]

Great place to visit, went last year, it's clean and well illuminated through natural light coming in through the clear roof panels. Dedicated team of volunteers, happy to chat about the engines. Easy parking close to the museum.

I went last weekend. Really interesting, and learned a lot, by asking questions. Setting this lot up to run so seamlessly must be near impossible! Really good day in return for my 200 mile drive. Nice cup of tea, and even peered through the door into the workshops.....wish our workshop at work was as well equipped, but when you ask the guy who bought the 2D router why he didn't get a laser cutter...and he says "what is that" you see how constrained we are :o(

Wow!

Wonderful! First time I have seen a rope drive working. But no steam visible... using compressed air?

[@jeffreypatrickwebb]

yes

[@austin12ascot]

Is anything run on steam?

[@jeffreypatrickwebb]

Yes
