Case 150 Steam Engine Documentary - World's Largest Steam Engine Tractor

[@johnharbaugh9471]

I heard the same talking points over and over........mentor, friend, honor to assist, preserving history, younger generation. Alot of valuable life lessons in this segment........

[@hawkdsl]

A brand new steam Case that is the land equivalent of the 4014 Big boy, may be one of the coolest things I've ever seen.

[@farmahedvikaslatinky]

Klobouk dolů před vaší skvělou prací. Takhle šikovných lidí je stále nedostatek. God bless.

[@maxasaurus3008]

Man, words fail me but the mixture of nostalgia, fascination and wonder… Fine job everybody, fine job 👏🏻.

Hi Kory, Shawn here from South Africa. Being a steam engine operator, enthusiast, I'm a big fan of your work and dedication. You are a big inspiration to young enthusiasts including myself. Im now 38 years of age and have been involved most of my life with steam, operating road steam as well as on rails. Thank you for building such a magnificent machine, what an amazing feat!. Keep on steaming and being an inspiration.

[@brianpesci]

I thank God that I grew up in a time where hard work, ingenuity and being able to solve issues were appreciated and you are the epitome of that standard. Thanks for your craftmanship, determination and willingness to take chances in order to achieve your goals. Your work is an important part of preserving the history of a time that could have been forgotten otherwise had you not undertaken this endeavor.

[@danielstickney2400]

I'm more impressed that we live in a time when advanced technology made recreating these machines practical and affordable.

[@RobertMChambers]

Amazing work restoring and manufacturing based on blueprints... hats off to you and your team

[@thehinac01]

Pretty amazing work. Doing all that from scratch. My favorite hobby is rebuilding old equipment. Lot of time I have to reach out to people around the world for help. Hear a lot of good stories from people that like Case just want to help keep something alive and usually hand over whatever data they have. Seems anytime you run across an old timer and tell them you are rebuilding something they originally helped build they can't wait to help you. It's always rewarding seeing them light up when you show them the finished product. Makes it all worth it. So seeing other people out there work so hard to share their passion with the world like this is really inspiring.

[@robertchautardjensen6846]

Good Lordy, what an awesome piece of engineering. Fabulous to see historic engines working as intended by their original designers.

[@jeffreybrianring6392]

Incredible story, great machines kept going from dedicated people.

[@NanaelSoubaim]

Friends, it's a really great work! If it's already laborious and time consuming to restore an classic car, imagine what you guys did! Just amazing!

[@Thompson621217]

Absolutely incredible documentary! I enjoyed every minute of it and would love to see more. I’d love to see this engineering marvel in person someday. Congratulations on an amazing accomplishment. The sound of that steam engine is so awesome. Thanks so much for putting this film together and sharing it with all of us.

[@dakotafilmco]

Thanks for the great comment Johnny! Check out Kory Anderson's KZbin channel for more footage of the 150: kzbin.info . They will be plowing with the Case 150 at the James Valley Threshing Show on September 10, 2022 in Andover, SD if you want to make a trip to see it in person! It's incredible to see in action!

[@saustin151]

@@dakotafilmcoI wonder if any of these folks know Ed Dickens and his Crew at Union Pacific in Cheyenne? Ed & his Crew brought the Big Boy 4014 back to life. Steam circles are small, so I wonder if these folks have talked?

[@joemuncie9187]

That is beautiful, what an accomplishment. I have always loved machinery, I started out building slot cars when I was 9. When I was 12 in 1965 I visited England. There was a Mamod model steam engine in a toy store. I asked if it actually ran on steam and was told yes. I bought it and running it was one of the most amazing things I had ever seen. I still have it and it still runs.

[@RJ1999x]

If you want another challenge, I have all the blueprints for the largest steam engine ever made. It was called the Manhattan engine, and was built by Allis Chalmers in West Allis (Milwaukee) Wisconsin

[@deltavee2]

This gentleman was bound to be an engineer one way or another. His story of origins and moving into related businesses to build the 150 culminating in the story told here is both heart-warming and impressive.

[@stephenhewitt5835]

Now that was VERY interesting. You made that all look very easy. God bless you and all your friends. Stay safe 🇬🇧

[@rickyburton4642]

That’s totally awesome! Y’all are all awesome!!! Thanks for keeping it alive! 👍👍😎

[@davidkimmel4216]

What a wonderful achievement. Thank You

[@wmden1]

Touching, inspiring, and very interesting, to boot. The rear wheel width extenders were a great idea. I think that width is ideal for the weight and torque of that engine. I watched the video of it pulling 44 bottoms, without spinning, or even straining, in fairly compacted ground. Jaw dropping, to say the least. I hope to see this tractor at a full blown, modified tractor pull, as an exhibition, at some time. This would be the kind where they blow engines and break frames. I have faith that this steamer would chugg along and pull the heaviest sled out of the arena, no problem, at all.

[@Dudleymiddleton]

Seen a video of it recently pulling 50 bottoms - world record! kzbin.info/www/bejne/b3etfKSMg52tmtE

[@24-Card]

Awesome, just plain awesome!

[@jamesducey2685]

This is a supreme example of attention, thinking and dedication. Thanks to a grand crew a thought became a reality that so many enjoy..

[@dougthompson1598]

I've shown the 150hp Case videos to some friends who were not terribly impressed at first, "What? It's only 150 horsepower, my Camry can beat that!" Then I explain horsepower is torque multiplied by RPM, and 150hp is at something like 100 RPM on this, meaning torque is somewhere above 5000lb/ft. That gets some attention.

[@dklgdveje]

22:55 Surreal transition, looked like a Hollywood movie. It's incredible what they have achieved, building a century old machine from mostly old blue prints

[@denniskahl9937]

AWESOME job you guys.....very interesting. Very few skilled men like you all around anymore, keep up the great work.

[@sharonfieber6458]

Pulling modern farm equipment ie. zero till, cultavator, etc. See yesterday with today's? Great job done!

[@gersonhay984]

Hat's Off. Great work.!!!

[@larrykrise3609]

i goto the tractor shows.never realley understood how steam did work,but love seeing them.awsome work guy,s.larry in INDIANA

[@alanworland9478]

Excellent work guys, we need to keep these machines alive!

[@GpunktHartman]

Well done Kory, ... I miss a statement from the case company ...

[@jimmydykes7961]

I can relate to you,I moved to Alabama as a child and thankfully got in on the tail end of the old south.I love the old people who have died and gone on who richly blessed me with a tradition that is quickly and sadly disappearing

[@barryphillips7098]

Mighty impressive Machine, PHENOMENAL power MASSIVE TORQUE!!!! Near where i live, we had NZ best engineering workshop, they could build anything!! Sadly all GONE now!!

[@nooneknows6060]

Nicely Done!

[@admar9520]

this is a great video

[@charlesangell_bulmtl]

This guy has a beautiful old pickup ... I'm jealous😁😁😁

[@xlch1757]

my hat is off to ya.,beautiful machine

[@CRAVTBOARD]

We do have a museum right around the corner here, where I live in Germany, with a lot of those old steam machines. And also a lot of big machines, like excavators & such machinery.

[@n.mcneil4066]

Your plow guys could have made a straighter headland if they each lowered their bottom in sequence as the plow went past a certain point starting at the right side. Still a very impressive video though.

[@DavidChristieCareerCafe]

Some very sensible Americans !

[@stevengrotte2987]

Do you know of Peter Locken/Lokenn of Aneta North Dakota he has a Rumley Oil Pull & several more.

[@lounar482]

Awesome...gotta see that babeee some time!!

[@marvthedog1972]

it amazes me how big of plow that thing can pull like it's nothing. that's got to be like a 100 ft wide of tillage there.

[@williamscore5322]

Just awesome

[@CONCERTMANchicago]

What's also interesting is how mechanical Farm implementary equipment since 1840 has stuck around to witness the science of compacted soils caused by footprints of human laborers hooves wide metallic Wheels rubber tires and today with increasing utilization of no till and left in place spoilage helping to cushion field traffic activities. With today's battery powered vehicles that are lighter and total weight . Also I think some of us having over imaginative imagination hope someday hover tractors will become common.

[@fredflintstoner596]

Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view! " Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam." Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!" Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky." Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction." Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment ?"

[@peteharder6325]

I'm deathly curious. What's the torque number on this bad boy?

[@ronmccabe7164]

There is a dyno video of this tractor on YT that shows it being tested.

[@jeanmeslier9491]

A comment for people where steam engines are not common. The little blue thing at the top of the boiler is the actual engine. All the rest of the machinery is to either furnish steam or utilize the power.

[@beachboardfan9544]

So that thing only makes 150 hp, but how much torque does it make?!?

[@kingneutron1]

Q: How much torque you want? A: YES

[@tcmits3699]

Great video, do you think steam has a future with battery technology providing the energy (heat) source, steam recovery via centrifuge (donkey engine)power unit of Wankel design close to a positive displacement turbine for smoothness, just a thought?

[@billshiff2060]

Its up to 50 bottom plows now.

[@conniedexter7666]

all this is amazing but it all really happened because of family and friends.

[@giopirmisashvili5514]

Built by the son of one of those poor farmers we all pay tax to subsidize.

[@andrewklahold2880]

You let me know when you make it to steam-o - Roma in Windsor pa or rough and rumble in kinsor I want to meet all have had a hand in building your steam tractor

[@andrewklahold2880]

I wonder if he knows steam Morris code, the Morris code that trains use the was a woop woop wooooohooo then woop woop not sure but I think this ment they needed a pusher on the tail
