The Marshall roller is one of the "Lillywhite collection" see this thread for details http://www.tractiontalkforum.com/sho...lywhite&page=2
The other engine is a Foster, probably on Steam Scenes. There has been a number of threads featuring the Lillywhite collection just tap in Lillywhite in the search facility.
Cheers Roger

No there was a blue 2 inch durham and a red/ marroon 2inch burrell roller (not in steam)
but as you walk down the side of the saw if you go right ahead there was two fowler road locos next to each other one bit small than te other

Hi Guys.

The 3" crane engine is a model of a B5 road loco. The other 3" Fowler is a model of an A7 single. We had both engines (not at the same time silly) on our 3" rack saw during the rally. We also had a boiler for a 3" Fowler B5 showmans with us too.

A great event as always.

Trixy.
