Roxton Park Steam Rally 1970
Sorry, it's just 45½ years late.
http://www.internationalsteam.co.uk/...ukroxton70.htm If anyone can identify the remaining engines that would be very welcome, as would any other relevant information. |
Great to see all those engines still on strakes....

Loved Roxton Park, and I would have been there, would have been 12ish. I have some pic's from that period, but sadly have had to go into storage, so not easy to get too.

The ploughing engine at the start is the late Bill Colebrooke's AA , ex Lord Rayleigh's estates and Keelings , going by Bill's Yankee style hat , uncommon in those days .

Thanks for those pictures. Happy days - 15 years old at the time, used to go with Dad.

The Fowler roller is Reg Saunders roller, the first engine which started Saunders steam collection, the A & P roller, I presume the T and J are Ted and John Saunders?, Reg's sons who took on the mantle and expanded the collection. Not sure if they still have the A & P, others on here will tell you, but the Fowler looks no different but a lot older.

Maybe not. The one at Roxton does not have double tee ring front wheels but does have belly tanks which 15771 does not.
