Hi Stroberc. I worked on Cooper-Bessemer engines from the time I was 14 or 15 My dad was super at the Welda, Ks Cities Service Gas pumping station. I poured concrete etc for a summer and finally ended up helping with over haul on the engines. Some fun. They are all gone now, The main building at Welda was torn down a few years ago. Love to hear from others who knew the engines. Bob Campbell rcampbell767@aol.com

Hello, I will be helping my Uncle in trying to get his Galloway 2 1/4 HP engine going. I am looking to help or information about the engine. Right now the piston in frozen and that is the first thing we need to get resolved. There are a few parts missing or broken as well. The oild site glass needs replaced beause it has a broken area. Any ideas on part availability? Any help would be great. Thank you, MarkO
