Default Wimbish Steam It Day 2019

Much as we would have liked to return Aveling 7385 to its second working base, it is currently undergoing the 10 year hydraulic test and will not be in a presentable condition for this event. Named 'Midget' while in Taylor Bros' ownership, the little 4 ton single speed roller ex Oxford Corporation was also known as 'Snatch' by Ben and his men for reasons that are obvious to anyone who has driven it. Although 7385 attended the very first EATEC rally at Saling, when Ben later purchased the two Aveling tractors they saw all the action, and the little roller was left under the trees until we took pity on it.
