West Oxon Steam Rally 20/21 July 2013

[EdwardianRob]

Had a pleasant trip out to Oxfordshire today for this fantastic local rally with a great selection of exhibits;



Line up at the steam parade



Savage Electric Light Engine of 1891, built for Aslands to power arc lights in their gondolas





Very, very impressed with this stationary engine - in a relatively small box trailer! Didn't note which exhibit it was though



1913 Bradford 'hit and miss' stationary engine



Not in the programme so a nice surprise when I saw it - 1918 Fowler BB1 Ploughing Engine 'Ajax'. What a beast!



Burrell Road Locomotive 'Lord Nelson' of 1913













Wallis & Steevens Expansion Engine of 1914



Burrell Showman's Engine 'Busy Bee' of 1914, certainly had an impressive turn of speed



1910 Garrett 7hp 'Mercury'



Marshall 6NHP 'Eynsham Hall' of 1891, owned by the great-grandson of its first driver/chief engineer at Eynsham Hall Estate





1912 bicycle with sidecar!



AEC Mammoth tanker



1930's Morris Commercial (does anyone know the exact type? I think it's the same type my fiance's family haulage business started with)
