Watch as a steam engine installed in 1908 comes back to life after sitting abandoned for 85 years! Our friend Alex Karnes will be our guide to the workings of this beautiful machine, as well as to many of the other mechanical antiquities that can be found within the walls of the water works.
We and Alex would like to thank everyone at the city of Woburn who made this possible, including Mayor Scott Galvin, City Engineer Jay Corey, DPW Deputy Superintendent Leonard Burnham, Plant Operators Scott Johnson and Jon Morales, and the Woburn Fire Department. Additional thanks to John Roderick and Frank Killoren.
