I’ve randomly stumbled upon this place twice in the past few years , however I can’t recall the exact location or name of it. It appeared to be some sort of junkyard for old steam equipment, and all kinds of other nifty old industrial equipment. Was across from pond as well, in a fairly nice area. Thinking it was near Angola, but I’m not certain. Been trying to find it for awhile to get an address anyone know the name of this place or have an address? ---
