Reid Engine At The Boonville Fall Show

 This smooth running two-stroke engine would have spent its working life in an oilfield powerhouse, operating multiple oil wells. It was on display at the Antique Steam an Gas Engine Club at Boonville, Indiana, during the Fall 2022 show.

  1. Nice engine and nice wooden signs.
    I had to look up the purpose of the second cylinder and then I remembered that it is a scavenger pump for the main cylinder and piston.
