That Foden in the last picture has changed somewhat since I last saw it!

A great do put on by the North Staffs club. The portable is a lovely thing with lots of original paint and lining.

Was really good to see the Calder's Foden. It's something else, a very nice job indeed.

Probably the best do we've had in a long time, the three Fowler DNB's are equally splendid and well turned out, the Cheshire visitor was a great engine to see with it being a former a resident, and then what in my opinion is the restoration of the year, the Calder boys three ton Foden!!

Cracking photos. We had a really good turn out of engines. Luckily the weather was kind to us.

Great photographs, looks like just the sort of event I like best.

+1 on the Ransomes portable, really like that.

The Foden is certainly a great transformation and a credit to the owners. What is the history of this engine?
