Good set of Photos from Traction Time as it was a bit damp and dull on Saturday Morning to start with.

Think you lost a year Coal miner as 2008 was decent weather when I when i visited IIRC - (but summary history in the guide says 2007 was postponed due to weather)

Like the miniature on the saw bench - I missed seeing that was it in action on Saturday ?

Like GMTbuilders shot of the leaning digger

There were different engines on the saw at various times - this was Sunday pm.

Did anyone spot the 'impostor' chimney on the GMT? Dave was trying out the cast aluminium bronze chimney top for his Tiger tractor to see if it would polish up after getting warm, which it appears to have done.
