Welland Steam Rally 2013

For those looking for something new, recently returned from Spain, steam road roller Fowler 9061/1901, in very original condition, is on static display alongside the Prout Garage display. A big beast to say the least.

The information was given to me by a well respected writer of magazine articles, who found, and photographed, something
which identified the engine, on the footplate.

Needs some twisted brass and a nice big washing machine dropping on the front

[windmiller78]

Was for sale in 2010, I think the advert said Italy.

[gordonwatkins]

I spoke to the owner today he said that he purchased it from Italy where it had been stored inside for over 70 years and it was 20 tons.

[hedge]

if it is a 20 ton engine then what size block does it have?

[windmiller78]

same or very similar to a b6 the owner indeed fetched it from Italy, super original engine and its very very heavy easily 20 ton, he bent his tractor pushing it into and out the shed, he needs a bigger one!
