My stand:

















Super duper exhausted steam catcher



Marshall 554 prototype tractor, fetched from the Britannia Iron Works when it closed down to the museum by my dad.



Ruston portable



Winding engine from Woodhall Spa. This was used to bring hot water up from the spa to the surface in the barrel in the background, up a 450 foot shaft! This was running on air.



Ruston (I think) shunting engine



Tiny portable!



Original WW1 tank!



Field gun and bunker



My loco trying to work.



Titan!!











Ian building up his amazing layout!



For all you oil can fans!

Nice one James. Looks a really good display.

Hope you steamed a few.

The Jensens look great.

Titan is a serous bit of kit. I'm thinking of making a tender, might copy how Titans has been done, will have to have a think about that.
