Great Dorset Steam Fair 2010 - Steam Scenes Pictures

[Steam Scenes]

After 10 or more hours of work my GDSF pictures are finally online. For me, and from a photography point of view it was the best GDSF ever. I think I have pictures of most of the engines that attended, I can think of at least one that I missed but hopefully not too many. According to my calculations their were around 230 engines on the site, the highest number since 2004 when they had the 50 unseen engines special. There were also 24 engines that I never seen before, a pretty amazing figure all things considered. I'm not expecting to see that many new engines at an event anytime soon unless I venture overseas. An event that will live very long in the memory.

A selection that I took, with a McLaren theme of course:

[ianmorris1960]

Sitting at my desk, having just sorted some machine or another, and waiting for it to explode, I looked at this thread, and was taken aback by the number of engines at Dorset.

Then I wondered how many of each kind - make and use were there, Sad I know but here are the results of the analysis of 227 entries in Davids list;

by make;

make number attending
Burrell 53
McLaren 45
Fowler 34
Aveling & Porter 19
Wallis & Steevens 14
Foden 13
Garrett 10
Marshall 8
Foster 8
Allchin 5
Sentinel 4
Robey 3
Mann 2
Ruston Hornsby 2
Ransomes Sims & Jefferies 1
Foreman 1
Davey Paxman 1
Savage 1
Brown & May 1
Babcock & Wilcox 1
Hindley 1

I think the Burrells have it!

then by kind;

type number attending
General Purpose Engine 62
Showmans Road Locomotive 38
Tractor 29
Road Locomotive 26
Road Roller 25
Showmans Tractor 22
Wagon 10
Ploughing Engine 9
Portable Engine 2
Steam Bus 1
Light Engine 1
Convertible Tractor 1
Convertible Traction Engine 1

Looks like the general purpose engines have it!

Many thanks for taking the pictures David, unbelievable collection!

Now, is this the largest collection of engines in one place ever?

Ian

[Steam Scenes]

Thanks for that Ian. The engine I know I missed is Fowler 11352, so the Fowler/General Purpose Engine count can be upped for those two.

I suspect there were more engines at GDSF in 2004, but I do have the total for that year as 229, the same as this year. Also, the Burrell year in 2000, I don't have an accurate total for that year to hand.

[4040]

I went to Dorset on the saturday,
I can only presume most of the 38 Showmans Road Locomotive's and 22 Showmans Tractors you mention, had left the site by the time I got there

[Eckdoe]

I thought you'd be there, like last year, but I never made it up that far. I think I was having a sit down by Saturday afternoon!

Steve.
