Nice to see my old Unipower, the one with the Highwayman cab, still out & about.
I owned it in the nineties, did lots of rallies in Kent & Sussex, mostly loading
rack saws, & a bit of winching. Main problem, 18 mph max. although after I sold
it I bought a roller which was a lot slower!

Dwain's 4" Showmans (the green Burrell) looks great. Thanks for posting.

Some great pictures there, thank you for posting. My son wants the picture with him sitting on the engine for his summer holiday's homework 4" Burrell Showman. One picture I am looking for is the Showman's miniature pulling Harry's Maclaren miniature around in the play pen and coming out of the trees barking its head off coming up the hill, it also sounded great.

Also I have got to say a big thanks to Harry as I had his engine for most of Monday and Sunday night pulling it around. Rob when I get around it to I will post some pictures of the engine as just after Onslow I had the sign writing done on the engine. It was a great show and top draw with the setup and crowds.

Default Even later I'm afraid

Sorry to bore you all with even more photos, but I've survived my first day of work after Dorset and here's a few of mine. It has a brilliant selection of exhibits in all sections, not just steam!

Thanks for posting the night time shot of Blackbeard Dave, he looks very good in the dark, most appropriate. Were the last engine up their much to the annoyance of the Safety Officer but at least I had a head light to get back with

Sorry Dwain, don't have that exact shot, some on my camera but it was quite dull then and they did not come out to well. Here is one just to prove it for you.



Here is another haulage demonstration on Sunday taken by my daughter.
