This is one of a series of pages which I have uploaded to
illustrate facets of steam rallies we have attended 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 2019 index and click here for
the overall index for 2019.
The gasket on Repulse's clack valve 'blew' late on Friday
afternoon. I assume it was given a tow back to base by 'Renown' and then some midnight oil must have been burned because it was back in
action by Saturday lunchtime.
