Just got back from my local steam rally and managed to take a few videos and edit them together.  I'm a particular fan of the Fowler BB1 but there were also a couple of north american engines there and they grow on me every time I see them.  I particularly like the water gauge on the Case engine as it is on the side of the boiler rather than on the backhead

Good to see you posting again Dave and thanks for that great video.

I like the Fowler BB1's myself as they are massive things and good to see some American steamers on the rally field aswell, my favourites are always the rollers though and after having a drive of one i can see why rallies are so popular.

Great video, but you didn't say that the Moose was there (about 3 minutes in)
