Kelham Island Museum !
Hi Guys,
Some pictures from my visit to the "Kelham Island" Industrial Museum in Sheffield UK, yesterday.

A rather nice "Crossley Brothers" of Manchester, Gas Engine. This machine was running at the time of these pictures. Its been completely refurbished and repainted in its original colour. It was surprising just how slow it ran ! You could hear the "Bang" about every 1.5 seconds as the gas burnt driving the piston.

I didn't notice this picture of how it worked until I turned to go, it was on the rear wall of the engine house.
All pictures taken courtesy of "Kelham Island Museum".
