The T 3 belongs to Paul Atkins who is a member of Hockley Heath and is sign written just to advertise the club. The Hockley T3 is at Colin Hatch's having a new box and barrel etc.
You are correct in that the hydraulic pump is for a trailer and provides excellent braking! www.hockleyheathsteam.org.uk

Anyway talking of trouble makers and miscreants were in attendance - ie the Irresponsibles and Reprehensibles who insist on driving engines on the road clogging up the Queen's Highway

The big boys were not the only one playing out on the road and the rally field, a couple of us miniature owners were out too, albeit slightly later than the big boys to avoid getting squashed. There were still a couple of big uns left at the pub as you will see in one picture. It was our first time attending Banbury and we were there as part of the Steam Traction World gathering and it was only Blackbeard's second formal event in steam.
There was an interesting moment as we were on the climb heading to the pub when one traction engine coming the other way back from the pub was suddenly being overtaken by another one - heading straight for us  Who was that engine driver?  Great event especially with the weather being so kind, scorchio!!

What a lovely van, very unusual roof light,and with all it's plates of owners and maker's. Very nicely done, and all his screw heads align up, the same way, a true craftsman.

Having driven a T3 roller on the road with steel wheels (which was very nice indeed), I guess one with rubbered wheels would be an absolute pleasure to drive?

It is a pleasure to drive, you don't have to shout at each other, you can have a normal conversation and the ride is soooo much better.
The steering is a little heavier but not overly so, but now you hear every sound from the motion you couldn't before! If you road a lot it is well worth doing.
