| These three arrived in convoy from a club who like to preserve ambulances. Very sorry I didn't catch the name of the club from the driver who spoke to me as she struggled with approaching our gate from the "wrong" direction, the non-power-assisted steering, and her first experience of driving it to a show. If you are from this club please get in touch with contact details and I'll give you a plug. |

| This 1926 Avelling steamroller had just completed a ten-year rebuild. This included replacing the boiler and other serious work. Owner Robert Bate has returned it to its original green paintwork. This machine was supplied new to Acton Borough council in London and was later sold on to Robert McKay, a contractor from Leicestershire | |

| Thjis machine is truly massive, as can be seen in the bottom-right photograph as it passes the village hall and a suitably impressed bystander. It is a 1929 Fowler Super Lion steam crane. It was originally used to deliver boilers build in Bilston all around the country and then to and install them - hence the crane. It was restored thirty years agao by its present owner Len Crane. |
