Visit America’s last remaining steam engine factory.
The 19th Annual Soulé Live Steam Festival in Meridian, Mississippi gives
visitors the opportunity to see how things were made and how hard people worked
back in the early 20th century. These workers’ efforts in the
past have helped to make our standard of living possible today. This event will
be hosted at Soulé Steam Feed Works, America’s last intact steam engine
factory. Always held on the first Saturday of November, this year the festival
falls on Friday and Saturday, November 4-5, 2022 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Historic
Soulé Steam Feed Works museum features an impressive permanent collection of
portable and stationary steam engines, which will operate using “live
steam”. The belt-driven machine shop will be in operation and other
industrial craftsmen will be demonstrating their trades.
