Great Dorset Steam Fair 2022
Showman's Engines
Burrells
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).

Few showmen's engines leave their 'safe area', the dust in the playpen would have totally ruined their finish... 'Me and my shadow' - this year many of the pictures were taken in a 10 minute period around 18.30 when the sun was low enough to light up under the canopies, of course given the angle, the shadow of my hat appears on the bottom left hand corner, I'm too old to have crouched down each time!
