It is a horse drawn bakers van, it was converted to steam in the 1970's by the late Jim Calder and also the late Dave Harding, it has a gas powered boiler and a Locomobile engine and 3 speed gear box.

It's also awesome.

Your photo's are very good, please can I have a copy of the ones of the Foster steam tractor if its not difficult?

Cheers
