Steam Rally



One of the things I do love seeing is a steam engine and in my area we are lucky to have a few steam rallys. One local one is called the Stoke Row steam Rally which I have visited in the past. This year I got my wife to go along with me to see what was going on.








One of the first things we saw was this steam lorry and engine






followed by this engine which was huge
There were the scale side engines like these two





along with this one
I've seen this in operation before where they saw a tree trunk into planks
the engine drives the saw with a belt




this was a cutie




one of the showmans engines





and a local one to me
What I did not show in the fist photo was the line of trucks the contractor had. Impressive to see that many. I'll show more from the show next week.
