Some photos taken at Burseldon yesterday, the Burrell Gold Medal tractor 'May Queen' disappeared as soon as I arrived and I didn't see it again. A very enjoyable event, I'd not seen A&P 11215 before, so a very pleasant bonus

Thanks for posting pics, sadly missed event by 2 hours so went for a walk down Hamble to catch up on a few old nautical wrecks:rolleyes:

we went for a wee road run on may queen at lunch time we was only gone an hour so you didnt stay long

Sorry, no I missed it altogether! didn't get there till 6pm, Work was to blame for lateness , was visiting family as well and walk was pleasant, so journey not wasted.
Cheers Rog
Edit aha, realised, you are replying to Mini Cooper.

Hello all,
It was a good day really. We did try to thank everyone on the day but we probaly missed a few people. So thankyou to all who attended, I mean all, not just the steam displays. Now we have more space in the yard it makes things easier.
Things went so well I didn't even have time to clean the brass on the roller before we went on the trolly. Also nice to see the roller on the TEP.
Regards
Stu.

Correct May Queen, I travelled down from East Anglia by train, and left about 2pm to head back home, just made the station as the heavens opened.

Dans Roller looks good on the stone crusher

Is that Danny Doveys crusher?

yes diesel its danno crusher

Thanks for saying you think the old rust bucket looks good & yes the stone crusher is that of Mr Dovey.

Cheers

Dan

anyone goin to the SAC driving day at bursledon?

last year was gr8, i was placed on dans fowler, Adagio, great engine

I think Dad is coming for the SAC, not sure about Simon though.
I'll pop down and see you all at some point and say HI.

xXx

It's on Sunday 27th April this year, I shall be there again. So if your really unluckly you could end up on the rust bucket again!! ;)

Glad you had a good time last year



All the best

Dan

unlucky??, i like that old ''rust bucket''

is it a DNA?


whilst i remember, does anyone know of anybody who needs help/an apprentice with an engine in the dorset/ hampshire area?

thanks
Matt

i'll have to make sure i get a chance to get on adagio, i think fowlers are better

Hi,

Yes it is a 10 Ton DNA Single.


Funny that you should ask about help, I can always do with some extra input. You will have to come & have a chat @ the SAC Day, if your interested?



Cheers

Dan

Ok Dan will do,

do you go to dorset?


Matt

I went with the roller for the 50th rarely seen engines, but not since. Maybe talked into applying for going again one day.


Dan

so does anybody know what engines are gonna be there on sunday?

I've heard there'll be 9 full size, 3 miniatures and 24 kids

x

1) Fowler Single Cyl Traction Engine 'Volunteer'

2) Marshall Single Cyl Roller 'Major Henry'

3) Aveling Compound Tractor 'Little Lucy'

4) Aveling Compound Roller '11215'

5) Garrett Traction Engine 'Olive'

6) Burrell Gold Medal 'May Queen'

7) Fowler Single Cyl Roller 'Adagio'

That's all the full size that I know of at the moment, that is already on site. They maybe some others on the day.

As far as miniatures go, I will have to stand back from more superior knowledge.


Dan

P.S Photos provided via steam scenes.

Maybe you should try reading the thread properly - burseldon brickworks open day has been and gone - but burseldon brickworks steam apprentice day is this Sunday. Why would we move to the thread to the show reports section when the event hasn’t happened yet?

Tend to agree with Matt on this. If its open to public stick a pointer to it by posting its own thread. Hope it goes well, has anyone noticed how quiet Adagio is on the road?
Cheers Rog

Thanks Dan & Wizz

Can't Wait!
