Default Pickering - Friday 3 August 2012

Some different engines at Pickering today.

First up Fowler 7871, a really treat. This engine was sold at the Willie Smith sale a few years ago and needed a good deal of work which it has clearly had:


























An engine which I have not seen before is Wallis & Steevens Traction 7013, which is with the Stafford family at Houghton-le-Spring:










Mr Whitwell bought this Fowler conversion, I don't know the number although I believe it is the one for sale in the back of the current copy of OG. The name seems very apt!








Saunders bought along their newly purchased Foden, 13708. This was the first time I have ever seen this engine in steam:






And they also had their also newly purchased Sentinel Steam Bus providing rides:




I took loads more pics and there was some more interesting things to look at. I'll post a few more tomorrow if nobody else does when I get back from South Cerney.
