Trotter Lives!!!
 

The unique 1933 Arthur Trotter steam roller is back in steam. Its first public appearance was at the Speech House Vintage Show on 10th September 2017.
It should also appear at the Perrygrove Vintage Working Weekend on 16th and 17th September 2017 just a short distance from its birthplace.

Grand Henham Steam Rally 2017
 

We had a long weekend visiting friends in East Anglia.

On the Saturday we went to a rather wet Henham event which temporarily put my camera out of action. The sun did though come out briefly in the afternoon when the engines were sitting around.

We also popped into the Long Shop Museum, which is simply excellent:

The engines here rarely go outside East Anglia which made it particularly interesting, albeit 75% we had seen at Strumpshaw and Weeting.

I've now got to wade through Friday's pictures at Old Warden, we had but a couple of hours sunshine in the morning to make hay. I gather the sun was in short supply thereafter until much, much later in the weekend.

Old Warden 2017
 

152 road engines (not including steam cars, fire engine, bitzas, fairground engine etc) present on the Friday, it seems 3 more arrived for the weekend. 158 in the programme, 11 no shows with 5 'not in programme'.

Definitely this was the best of the three days for photography, but I reckon there was about minute of sunshine for each engine present, but not all were off their loaders before the cloud (and rain) arrived.
