Shrewsbury Steam Rally 2019
General Engines, Part 2
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 Shrewsbury index and click here for the overall 2019 index.
The Shrewsbury rally again produced an excellent set of general engines, the majority of which had been here in 2013/4/5/6/7/8. However as noted in my introduction, this section had been refreshed and more than a quarter of the engines had not been seen here in that period.
Someone more experienced than I could no doubt explain what there is about Fowlers, not long ago 'Foremost' might have been considered 'mission impossible', since when we have seen 'Onward' and now 'Talisman' come to life again. Each represents a huge investment of time and money.
