Temple Texas Engine & Tractor Show

Post by Wind Charger Mike »

Temple, Oct 4,2025
Displayed a few wind chargers at the show. Got a lot of looks going down the highway with the big Streamliner sitting up that high. Huge crowd this year.

That's a really neat display. Do you transport the gens upright on the trailer?

Only the Streamliner was upright for the trip. I like the rigging challenge. Generator weighs about 300lb and stub tower is 6’.

That's a show on my bucket list since I can combine the show and visiting cousins in the Georgetown area.

Jeff , Georgetown is only 45 min south of temple , quick drive at 80 mph.
Or you could work out both stops in March with the next Trade Fair just south of San Antonio down I-35

Is the March Temple show the same time as the trade fair? Or weekend before or after? Thanks
