Rushden Cavalcade 2010
 

I went to Rushden today, what a difference a day makes - overcast and half the temperature. Owing to the overnight rain not much engine movement and not many good pictures, however the engine count was well up on previous years.

One of the highlights of the rally, as in previous years, has been the larger scale miniatures that attend, a selection of pictures:

First time out for this 6" Mac, very nice:

Did Great Northen Steam have there 9" Tasker there ?

Whose 6" Mac was it??
Was it a GNS one.

GNS should have had a 9" Tasker, a 6" Tasker, a 6"Savage and the Mann Waggon in the picture

Regards
Steven

9" scale Tasker
 

Tasker A2 from GNS

Trystan - 6" Mac was built by Ian Jenner and not a GNS one although it was painted by GNS. A super engine and a real credit to Ian and the transfer really finishes it off.

Back to the painting - Dorset is coming way to fast!

6" Tasker This engine was one off the first that was out from GNS. Owner got it at Beds steam rally last year.

I have been asked to post these pictures taken around the GNS stand at Rushden.
