What a rally! Another great show, a propper old fashioned rally, reminds me off the old Paraham Park and Downs Rallys! A few pics from sunny Saturday! Well done Ian, Anne and Co!

I was trying to work out if the rivets for the tubeplate are hidden under that front section of lagging, cause to my mind there looks to be a lot of distance between the smokebox and cylinder. If you imagined it had a headstock on it, it would be further back.

This Aveling spent a few years on display at the Garrett museum when it was in its original form (roller).

Well, weren't we lucky with the weather!! During the mass clear up on Monday it persistently rained, but everything heavy was either off the grass already or tucked up in its shed back home!
Thanks to our exhibitors, visitors and helpers for their time and here's to 2013!!
