I wonder why they didn't get any footage from the rest of the weekend?

Now let me think - didn't I see it crash into one of the JC Ball dancing diggers and promptly get crushed under its wheels?

I believe so; but it was a very impressive bit of kit all the same.

Great pics - so many good events on one weekend! I went to two and there were several others I had to miss.

I went on the sat just to meet up with some friends in the steam and stationary engine sections although a knee injury prevented much walking about.I hadn,t been to the rally for some years but it was good to see familiar engines.A personal highlight for me was the howard bros 87key gavioli formerly housed at the crich tramway museum which was playing well.The verbeek organ near the stationary engine section was also in good form.
