It's West Somerset's rally this weekend at Norton Fitzwarren,Taunton. I'll be roading Cynthia with living van and water cart on Friday. I'm also taking two "rusty" engines as well.
see you there Mike.

I had a lovely weekend at the show. My Aveling ran well both there and back, I even managed to road her to my house. This is quite a feat as it's so steep on one hill we had her in bottom gear with full regulator AND double high!!! She didn't slip abit even though the roads were wet, I guess that's down to the diff.
Any photo's anyone?
Mike

Hi Keny,
They are both my engines but sadly I don't know the works no's as both plates are missing. It may be possible to trace there no's as both have build no's on the boilers but lack of time.............
