Default Firebar's Bonfire Bash

Many thanks to Mr & Mrs BF and family for a very enjoyable day. The sun shone while we were there but we saw a few people drying off in the pub, must have just missed it. Only sorry we couldn't have spent more time with them.

at the firebox end ? A Barrows perhaps ?

I may be wrong but is it not Windymiller's (Adam) Barrows and Carmichael, he has a thread in the engines section on its progress.

I think You are right link here http://www.tractiontalkforum.com/sho...hlight=barrows I don't know Adam, the owner, other than being introduced breifly, but does look like him pulling the tail of the portable.

Just a few snaps from today, unfortunately I had to go to Barnsley to sort out a problem at a customers, so was unable to join in the fun.
When I got home, Jack and I went to the Horse and Jockey, arrived about 3pm and was lucky enought to get these before they left for BF's.
The portable is a Barrows it is Windymillers I am sure he will supply more details when he reads your post.
