Rough and Tumble 75th Threshermen’s Reunion steam extravaganza – #tractor

This event was an absolute blast! If you like old cars, trucks, farm equipment, tractors, steam engines, and other historic machines you don’t want to miss it! Follow along as we go to the 75th annual Rough and Tumble Threshermen’s Reunion featuring endless steam engines, all operating!

The first Rough and Tumble social gathering was held in 1948 on the grounds of Arthur S. Young´s farm equipment dealership south of Route 30 at the east end of Kinzers, Pennsylvania. Steam engine enthusiasts had encouraged Young to have a show to display his collection of engines. As an officer of the Pennsylvania Threshermen and Farmers Protective Association, Young persuaded that group to provide free food and advertising for the event.
