Wow, great link there Dave.

That guy must have the largest personal collection of steam traction engines that I've ever seen, not to mention stationary engines and dynamos and other nifty oddball stuff.  Talk about a re-builders paradise.  I just wish he were closer.  I wouldn't mind getting a few dimensions off a few hundred things out there.

Holy moly, that's a lot of great old stuff! I sure hope it ends up in a museum or something, and doesn't rot away or get scrapped when the owner dies.
