Steamfest Tasmania 2016
 
From what i gather, it was a success. However i don't think it broke last years record.
Engine list is smaller than usual.
There was
The Hornsby Akroyd oil traction engine
Buffalo Pitts
Marshall 5 nhp single
Marshall 7nhp compound
McLaren super heated compound steam tractor
Foden 7nhp compound
Marshall Portable(forgot what hp it is)
Sailsbury Roller
Marshall compound Roller

I didn't get many photos this year due to actually getting hands dirty on both steam rollers for the three days.

That's about it for photos.
I also learned some finer art in steaming up an engine and also help out on a knock on the Salisbury roller little end.
