I stumbled across this image wile looking for something else. It's attributed to: Connecticut Antique Machinery Association Museum, Litchfield Co. I hope I have that right.
The engine seems to be or have been at the Antique Machinery Museum.

Based on a clearer view of the lettering, I believe it came from American Steel in Worcester, Ma.

………..Originally Posted by Murnane:the "#" is a "number sign" or a "hashtag" or "pound symbol" - which is used in most social media sites. Here's a good review of what they are and how they are used (and overused, as can be seen in the video):

Essentially it's a decent way to keep track of a topic within big text like we have here on the forum, so the topic can be searched on using tools like Google. If you searched on "switcher saturday" you might get weird stuff, but if you searched on "#SwitcherSaturday" your results would be very specific to our little group of postings here we do each week.
I fully realize we don't do much "hashtagging" here on the forum, which is why it's been fun to include it in the posts each week, just to add a bit more fun.
