   Fairbanks-Morse Hit-'n'-Miss Flywheel Engine

As Seen at Renfro Valley Appalachian Harvest Festival__2006

A very nice example of a Fairbanks-Morse Hit-'n'-Miss Flywheel Engine

Fairbanks Morse and Company began in 1823 manufacturing cast-iron plows and stoves.
Fairbanks-Morse manufactured many and varied products; they were famous for their platform scales which sat in any feed-mill or store that sold bulk bagged or boxed items by weight.

Fairbanks-Morse even manufactured a line of diesel-electric rail-road locomotives; the "Fairbanks-Morse Trainmaster."

The parent company lasted until it was merged in 1958 and by then had become a huge company.
Three subsidiary companies exist under the Fairbanks-Morse name to this day, manufacturing scales, engines, and pumps.
