Amongst his first batch I'd be interested to know what the red Garrett tractor is - or is it a large scale model? - no c/n visible or registration.

Also British Hero, The Iron Maiden(the film started it all off for me), a Fowler tractor & Irish Garrett Showmans tractor Samson. The Plougher is BB1 Princess Mary

The Smart Sentinel is actually the sole surviving Fowler wagon. Looks good except for the excessive sign writing.

What an excellent show! Previously, the biggest I'd been to was Astle park, so this just blew me away!!!!
Also, a MASSIVE thanks to Spike (Andy Craven) for letting me have a steer on Ollie, the Fowler 10-ton Road Roller

talking of which... did anyone happen to get a picture of me on it in the ring? In my excitement I forgot!
