It was an impressive engine. First outing I believe.
They had a little trouble with a bearing running hot on Saturday night, but it was all sorted Sunday morning.

It was the only burrell there. I have a listof all the other engines present if anyone wants me to post it.

Our Burrell Gold Medal Tractor no 3808 had been there and had left site at 14.30 to steam 9 miles home as the field was empty of visitors and most exhibitors were going home due to the bad weather following two glorious days of sunshine. The engine you refer to is a 9 inch scale miniture of Simplicity in road loco form, it weighs 8 tonnes and is very similar in size and weight to my GMT.

I came across the 9" Burrell at Cullingworth earlier this month , it looked big on the back of a flat bed lorry though I did not see it running .
Looks impressive .

Just to prove it, here is a picture of Anthony's Burrell in the line up on Sunday.



Plus a few others as no one else has posted any from this event.
