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 2025 index and click
here for the overall 2025 index.
There were two 'new' rollers for me here although
all but two of the rest had been seen here before. Nevertheless, as always, it was a
very good selection with 9 builders represented. The Marshall was especially
interesting being similar to the Wallis and Steevens Advance type. The TER
and the programme gave its works number as 80224 but the plate on the
cylinder cover clearly states 80442.
