Hi Beth,
I remember that photos.

Joseph, here you have photos taken from my original Bryan Catalogue.

While I was reading the catalogue I found that Bryan made also steam trucks . Does anyone have photos of this truck?
There is one in the page I have posted near the threshing machine.

Notice how the engine looks a lot like a 20hp Stanley. Perhaps they were sourced from Stanley. I believe at least one newly built Stanley "Gentleman's Speedy Roadster" is running a Bryan engine. Here is a great link for Stanley info: http://www.stanleymotorcarriage.com/index.htm

Bryan made their own eng. the stanley had flat slide valves the bryan had piston valves. Overall I think it was a better eng. bob

Thank you for putting that up.

 

[John Deck]

Hey Joe if you had come to NTA or Forest City you could have seen it in person.

 

[Joseph Graziana]

Thanks john the reason I was looking a friend of mine bought a engine and we didn't know if that was. But it really was a Bryan tractor engine. I don't know what he going to do with it.
