ROOTS OF MOTIVE POWER

Roots of Motive Power, Inc., acquires and preserves steam logging and railroad artifacts of historical importance. Its collection of over 60 pieces of machinery ranges from small stationery engines to locomotives. One of the biggest attractions is a 1932 Bucyrus Erie Steam Shovel. Roots' members steam-up the restored equipment for community events, school groups, and on special occasions.

Roots organized in 1982 and began with a single piece of equipment. The Roots mission is to preserve and restore antique logging and railroad equipment.
