27th Essex Country Show (Barleylands) 14-9-2013
 

Despite the rain, ground conditions were not too bad, a shingle type track has been laid from the main road, to the Billericay car park.,
The tracks between fields were on the muddy side, the rest, mainly grass, was fine to walk on. The 6 ploughing engines were ploughing as usual
Here is what I found: -
Allchin 1105
Aveling Barford AC621
A&P 2291 8837, 9170, 9181, 10994, 11236, 14174

C&S 39400, 46823
Foden 7536, 7926
Fowler 3195, 11554, 12754, 13877, 14712, 14729, 15226, 15227

We have just got AP9170 back home after a throughly enjoyable run back. Had a cracking weekend at Barleyalnds despite the lousy weather.

We are steaming 8837 back home next weekend.

Jim

glad youve had a good time with 9170 Jim.

Chris.

For the second year running, I have been lucky to find another Bomford and Evershed engine. This time it was Ruston and Hornsby 114059, newly restored, but not quite finished, just in time for the show by Simon Vickery. One of only two compound engines to have survived, I am told.
