Certain things that go — or, in many cases, went — are in the limelight this weekend at the Owls Head Transportation Museum’s Vintage Motorcycle Meet and Antique Aeroplane Show.

Saturday’s spectators enjoyed displays and demonstrations of vehicles including an 1868 Roper Steam Motorcycle and an 1898 Leon bolle Tri-Car; tours of the museum; and a noon “engine rev & hornblow.”
