Enjoy the excitement, the adventure, the fun of a steam car tour with the participants — with this documentary
of the 2008 Green Mountains Steam Car Tour in Bennington, Vermont. Its about cars under power of steam and the
people who care for and maintain them.
It also has a little taste of Bennington, Vermont--covered bridges, monuments and history. Mostly, it is about those
who polish, shine and pamper to preserve a part of America's past.
There is a certain amount of good natured fun between steam car operators. Most importantly though, there
is a great amount of respect for one another and one another’s cars. There are only so many Stanleys and
other steam cars left in this world. Those who have them have taken on a special responsibility to preserve
a piece of automobile history.
Sam and Linn Kirkpatrick family organised the tour, they are seen here with their 1909 E2.
A rally is an opportunity to get together and speak “steam.” In the parking lot with the hood up, or on the road
chuf chuf chuff ing, it is a time to indulge the hobby that is a passion. It is a time to set out each morning
looking for adventure, discovery, water, and hopefully not having to make a call to AAA.....
