| True, but not like there was a market for it 60 years ago. Like there might be now, forced by the gov as the case may be. |

Until they can make it run on solar it won't be practical. They don't make solar panels that are efficient enough. They could run it on coal, create steam, use the steam to generate electricity. :) |

| Anyone know if the fuel cell tractor in the museum will actually run today or for display only? A number of years ago when the GOTO was in Hutchinson we saw the fuel cell at the museum. |

The fuel cell first came about in 1838. If I remember right the feds asked Allis Chalmers to to work on it and farther develop it, that is when A.C. came up with the propane run fuel cell tractor. I first saw it in the winter of 1959 or 60 at MSU Farmers Week, it was on display, and there was videos showing showing it working.
