Fairford Steam Show 2024
Working Steam

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).

For a 'new rally' there were two interesting demonstrations, well set out for curious visitors and photographers alike.

Steam Crane

As I had been told, the Isles steam crane which made its debut at South Cerney was here too, at work courtesy of a steam supply from Fair Rosamund. (WS 7370/1914)

Saw Benches

Burrell 3665/1915 was working nearby.
