Great North Steam Fair 2017
The Engines
This is one of a series of pages which I have uploaded to illustrate facets of steam rallies in the UK. Such events occur all over the country in the summer months, they are easily found by using your favourite search engine and may have anything between a handful of steam engines and hundreds (as at the Great Dorset Steam Fair which could probably be fairly described as having an excess of riches). Click here for the Great North Steam Fair 2017 index and click here for the overall index for 2017.
The pictures are courtesy of Neil Edwards, we did not attend on this occasion. Note that Providence is hauling the Ravenglass and Eskdale railway's 'River Mite', recreating its delivery by the same engine in 1967.
