Coolspring 2012

[Marty Riffle]

The Coolspring Power Muesum is featuring engines built in Ohio. And a power point presentation on the Foos Gas engine Co. Done by Piston Fooster. (Preston Foster). So get those Ohio built engines ready. Here are a few we would love to see.Bluffton, Burkett,C.Benninghofen & Sons,Heer,CarlisleFinch, Middletown Machine. What are some of the others you would like to see? Marty

[Preston Foster]

It would be great to have a Foos for every year since the founding of the Foos Gas Engine Co. 125 sounds like a nice number. At Foos Fever 15 years ago we had 96 Foos engines recored on our log and we were informend we missed a few.

[Road Torpedo]

How many engines were built in Cleveland Ohio? I ask becouse for 5 months i lived there. Seen alot of old buildings and wondered about their history.

[Marty Riffle]

Looking at the Byb I count 13 but could be more. Marty

[Rex Pyles]

What about a Heer or Ideal Marty???

[Sad Iron]

Callahan, Columbus, Dayton, in the "rare birds"
I'd love to see someone bring a Bruce MacBeth but don't expect Dad has any interest in digging ours out.
Hope there are a few Advance engines there too...

Other than that I'm sure there will be some oddball stuff we'll never see anywhere else!!

No Doubles for me, they are to hard to back up

[LarrapMan]

I hope you have some Blufftons like this attending, If you don't then you can always sponsor me to come!

[Mike Monnier]

I don't see Gearless or VIM on your list yet Marty. Dad and I haven't really discussed what we're taking yet. Can't wait to see all of the goodies on display!!

[Marty Riffle]

Lets add Cook, Edwards, Home Power, Kenton, Jaeger Machine, Marty

[Rod Fielder]

what about us meager oil field guys and gals. superior or pattin bros. anyone, or is that common stuff not welcome?

[Preston Foster]

If any one has looked around Coolspring it is easy to see that oil field engines is a large part of the collection. If it was made in Ohio it is most welcome!
