Lovely engines, lovely settings - great photos. Wish I was there!

I was there. It was amazing how most engines managed to get up the hill on their own yet the Burrells needed at least 2 and sometimes 3 tied together to stand any chance of getting up the hill. Even then they struggled, huffing and puffing and snorting their way around the site.
