We visited Beamish museum today and in the school house there was a player piano! And I asked if it worked and it did and I got to run it! I've actually never operated a working one. Inspired me to get a move on repairing mine.
The "school teacher" demonstrating it to me complained they only have one working piece of music for it so I might donate them a couple of mine.
There was much more cool stuff at Beamish but I'll toot about that later.

Chaldron wagon at Beamish Open Air Museum, this type of wagon was a staple for early pit railways, and many survived a very long time carrying coalstone and slag.
