Description

In this volume of previously unpublished photographs David Reed records traction-engine rallies from the late 1960s through to the early 1980s. These images feature showman’s engines, heavy haulage engines, steam lorries, tractors and road rollers. Engines are pictured attending rallies at Andover, the Beaulieu fair organ festivals, Hungerford Old Tyme Steam Fair, Basingstoke Steam & Transport Festival as well as scrap-condition engines at Hurstbourne. The Historic Commercial Vehicle Run is visited at Brighton, along with the Stourpaine Great Working of Steam Engines, the Hollycombe Steam Collection, the Great Dorset Steam Fair and Dingles Steam Village. Well-known manufacturers featured include Aveling & Porter, Burrell, Fowler, Garratt, Marshall, Sentinel and Wallis & Steevens. This book will appeal to all traction-engine enthusiasts and showcases the many varieties of engine and their associated events.
