A small, friendly, one day event in a picturesque corner of Norfolk last weekend. Four full sized road steam vehicles and a handful of miniatures plus a large number of old tractors and a small number of other interesting machinery.

This A&P roller is just coming to the end of a rebuild and must be the quietest running one I have ever heard, thanks to work by local 'heritage engineer' Steve Barraclough.

At some point it was re-rolled by John Allen.


A Marshall roller was enjoying the sunshine.


Whilst a Wallis & Steevens engine was actually doing some work.


Also on display was 'Typhoo', the ERF six-wheeler fitted with the boiler and engine from a Sentinel shunting loco. It has been known to terrorise local traffic with speeds of up to 60 mph.


This is Typhoo's engine, the boiler and driver's seat can just be made out in the background.
