Engines Travelling to GDSF 2013
 

I went out engine hunting today looking for engines roading into GDSF. Thanks to steaming my way's route I managed to find a few returning from the Isle of Wight event over the weekend and onto GDSF.

Leading the way was Sentinel 8393 HMS Sultan. Traveling at speed I had a job getting past them before the got to the rally site:

Next up and not far behind was Burrell 3718 "Lion":

I had a closer look when they stopped at the Horton Inn for refreshments, what a beautiful engine this is:

Three engines still at Drucila's following their event at the weekend, Fowler 15319 "Queen Mary", Burrell 3896 "Earl Beatty" and Burrell 3938 "Quo Vadis" hiding behind, quite a set:

Finally Fowler 11111 "City of Hull" storming along with a road train and a half:

Travelling through the New Forest just past Burley:

I'm not sure the New Forest ponies though much of it though:
