No country with the Colonel Francis G Ward pumping station can be considered bad. Five monstrous Triple Expansions in one house! Awe inspiring. And Cinncinnati water works is pretty impressive (although I can't spell it )

The Cincinnati Water Works Pumping Station in located in California Ohio. I have driven past that place many times, little did I know what was in there, I wonder if any remnants are still in there. I did not think it was open to the public, but now I will have to investigate. It will probably be months from now before I can find out though.

The Colonel Ward Station is in Buffalo New York isnt it?

The Ford museum in Detroit has a great display of all types of steam locos, beam engines, T.E.s and generators.

Well worth a visit .

Amazing.
