I received this Email from Don Dandurand at the Siouxland Historical  
Railroad Museum in Sioux City.  They want to sell a compressor for steam  
engine 
and don't know who might be interested in buying one.  Neither do I,  so am 
passing the request on to some of these lists.  If anyone has any  
information to share, please Email me, and I'll pass it along to Don.   Thanks.

  I know you guys don't run steam and I hope you do not mind my making  
contact with you
in this matter, but trust you understand. Maybe you will be  able to help 
us out.
What, where and who would be good sources to make  contact with, that are 
rebuilding 
or have working steamers that would maybe  be interested in buying a 
rebuilt steam engine compressor?
When we had  visions of running GN#1355, we had purchased a rebuilt steam 
compressor from the  
MILW #261 outfit that had it and wanted to sell it years ago.
We  now want to sell it. When we removed it and put the original compressor 
back on  1355, 
we made a heavy wood framed crate for it and placed it in the  crate.
It has never been used since rebuild and never dropped, thus no  damage.
Until we get the particulars about it to refresh our memories  with it, I 
am sure it was 
a big Westinghouse model.
So should be a  hell of a pumper. Looks a lot like the ones that were 
mounted on the front  
of the big steamers.
Would you pass this along to some of your  friends in steam and have them 
pass it along 
to others also if they are  interested, etc.?
