From 1882 to 1924, nearly 16,000 Russell traction engines were produced. Available in sizes from 6hp to 150hp, Russell offered engines for nearly every application. Built for everyone from the owner of a small farm to large professional firms both home and abroad. With many of the largest traction engines shipped out of the country. The most common engines were mid-sized, simple cylinder engines. Russell also produced many compound engines, utilizing both a high and low pressure cylinder for power and efficiency. These are the engines that most of you see at steam shows around the country.
