Another first and another excellent rally.

As there are other types of transport at rallies' I have put on an eclectic mix so hopefully something for everyone.

Yes, it's the Trotter. It made it into the parade ring on Sunday - but it was towed! The person looking after it told me he hopes it will be working next year.

It was a fantastic show. We were crewing the SBR engine on the Road Making Demo on Sunday and had a great time. Really impressed with the event. Well done to all involved

I believe it's 3522 of 1913, from New Zealand. Apparently over here for boiler work.

The trotter roller is on loan from the Folk museum, it had a new boiler a few years ago but the pipework was not great. The boiler was removed and hydraulically tested 2 weeks ago and all was good. It's having a repaint and a bit of work and should hopefully be in steam next year.

I left on Friday before it was sold. On Saturday, the word was that, with the usual extras, the price was of the order of £30k. Someone no doubt will know the exact hammer price.
