Tinkers Park Steam Rally 2026
The Claude Jessett Collection

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 Tinkers Park Steam Rally 2026 index and click here for the overall index for 2026.

At the time of my previous visits in 2015/2018, Aveling and Porter roller 5831 and Wallis and Steevens showman's engine 7777 were locked away and could only be viewed by special arrangement, but the roller has now been restored to working order, maybe it will be the WS's turn next.
