Antique Powerland

About

Home of the Great Oregon Steam-Up. Antique Powerland is a power equipment heritage site with 15 individual groups/museums on the 62 acre property.

Story

The Great Oregon Steam-Up is the largest event at Antique Powerland during the year and involves all of the museums and many other participants. The Great Oregon Steam-Up occurs annually during the last weekend in July and first weekend in August. One of the unique aspects of the event is that most of the equipment is operating. A parade takes place each day at 1:30 pm and includes vintage tractors, trucks, and automobiles. The steam powered sawmill operates twice a day and the trolley tours the site perimeter all four days of the show.

Learn about the early machinery that made Oregon work. Hear about innovators and manufacturers of the past. Machines include farm tractors and implements, early engines, crawlers, fire apparatus, vintage trucks and cars, logging gear, an early Oregon flour mill, and an authentic steam sawmill. Rides include an historic trolley and a miniature railroad.

Scheduled activities: Machinery demos, sawmilling, flour milling, fire apparatus demos, harvesting, kids pedal tractor pulling, traditional tractor pulling, and a Big Parade!

Other Attractions: Blacksmithing, a country store, models, early electricity exhibit, miniature farm display, children's passport program, swap meet and flea market sales, country music, and great food!
