I too went to Steamfest on the Saturday, what a breath of fresh air compared to the H&S restrictive UK shows nowadays. Engines were free to move to various points around the ground giving show visitors close access rather than just being left lined up to one side. The steam parade was through the showgrounds, very close to the visitors and exhibitors and many thanks to David for letting me steer his Marshall for the parade. Interestingly, as soon as the parade had ended, most of the visitors left, no swilling it up in the beer tent 'till midnight, there wasn't one!! A great show, lots to see and everyone was very friendly.
Here are my pictures, some similar to what has already been posted. (I think the engine numbers are correct, any corrections or additions gratefully received) Marshall 8 hp 72687 - (marshall8hp) ------------------- Marshall compound 76762 ------------------- Buffalo Pitts 8246 ------------------- Marshall 5hp 59814 ------------------- McLaren 1253 ------------------- RSJ 34323 ------------------- Foden 2520 ------------------- Robey ------------------- Burrell Devonshire 3010 ------------------- RSJ 34323 ------------------- Hornsby Oil Engine 10656 ------------------- Marshall Roller ------------------- Fowler DNA 10T - 16941 - - (Wormgear) ------------------- In Sheffield Tasmania, the small town where Steamfest is held, there are lots of murals painted on the sides of buildings. This one was by the place we were staying. |

It looks like a road grader conversion.
Sorry this ended up in the wrong place. It looks like we'll be going to Tassie in late August for our 5th wedding anniversary, (the wifes idea) will there be any steam or agricultural shows on then? It was her idea for us to go to Dorset for our Honeymoon. I'm blessed.... Cheers Trev |
