This is strictly out of my bailiwick, Scott, but I am very
curious--what are
such engines used for? What sort of installations? And where
in the
Hoosier State did it go?

They power generators, for electric. Most are at lumber mills or
furniture plants where they burn the sawdust as free fuel. Many
of them came from different state gov'ts. where they were
powering state hospitals and prisons. Some were just sitting,
unused for years, in the basements of old factories.

I took this one to Rockville IN. West of Indy, on 36. Been there
about 8 times now. There's a great fishing creek right in back of
the power house. I then went to Allegan MI to pick up a pair of
big condensers (or evaporators).
