Went down on Saturday, late afternoon. I presume it was Ross I was talking to, thank you for taking the time.

Sadly the note on the wheels of the Heuke related to the theft of a the crankshaft from this engine
Ross did point out, this was not a Fowler

We were there with the 4" Ruston and half sized (Toylander) Land Rover Series 1. Had a great weekend with good coal, good running and good company. Well done Pat once again for marshalling the miniatures and sorting us all out!

What better way to spend a weekend is there?

Could it really have been Sellindge? Where was the cloud-burst and mud???

Nope. Still indoors I suspect. Like to see this out, and the Zettlemeyer.
