John Deere Waterloo Boy

In december 1911 Waterloo Gasoline Engine

Company introduced an entire new series of

engines with a redesigned water hopper. This

2 horsepower model was equipped with a gasoline

carburetor as standard equipment, but could be

converted to burn city gas as a slight extra cost.

Most early Waterloo Boy Engines had a deep

blood red fed finish, those produced after 1915

used a bright green enamel with a profusion of

yellow pin stripping. Deere & Company continued

to build the Waterloo Boy line virtually intact for

several years after purchasing the company.

With Deere´s introduction of the renowed type

E engine during the 1920´s all production ended

on the waterloo boy engine line
