The calliope in this was from an old show boat that had sunk. E E Coleman had it for a time, then Parker & Watts. Paul Van Pool later bought it and loaned it to B C Davenport and it was on Dailey, Diano, etc, readers may recall it from the Cristiani show in a semi, finally back to Van Pool and changed hands a couple of times to fans/collectors.

That's a pretty hefty boiler
