Be warned my son and I did David loaders steam esperance in 2021 I cost us best part off £90,000 we are now the proud owners of a 1900 wallis and steevens traction engine it's a very addictive hobby 😊

I'm already in deep 🤣 My wife is rolling eyes and sighing already 😁

@fowler_steam Месяц назад

Ya lucky sod! I may need to look into doing something like this, I'm a few years off affording a roller yet 😂

@SteamOTR Месяц назад

It was a gret day - go do it, it's so worth it.

Nice one, we went to Berrybrooks and took "The General" their half size showmans (when they had it) out for the day before we bought our miniature (not from there I'd add), was very good day. Must admit having fired and messed about with a fullsize showmans I'm happy to stick with the smaller scales, lovely as a full size is you tend to need deep pockets and decent crew and a back made of steel 😁

@SteamOTR Месяц назад

Loved the day. Might be tempted in to a full-size at some stage.

@PhoneVidoes Месяц назад

@@SteamOTR They are hard work, but rewarding. I'm very happy with my half size, easy to transport, reasonably quick to fire and pretty manageable in almost all situations.

@SteamOTR Месяц назад

Everything you're saying is the same as the things I say to try and convince myself that I only want the Half-size. But then............

slippery slope that!

@EmmaRitson Месяц назад

im down about 120k au and any spare time and cash ive had since.

@SteamOTR Месяц назад

Ha! I can imagine. It's quite addictive isn't it!

An all round great day Dan! I bet you really enjoyed the experience And they did let you have a good go with the engine. Bet the folk in the home were well pleased too. We all need to support our local air ambulance, so vital in rural areas. Great work from the camera person too! It was a great watch👌

@SteamOTR Месяц назад

All credit to Cal for the camera work. It was a fantastic day, really enjoyed it.

'It's a slippery slope ... 😉

@SteamOTR Месяц назад

It's a glide rather than a slope 😁

@petergardner2334 Месяц назад

that was a good video

@SteamOTR Месяц назад

Great, thank you

@RanDomRikM Месяц назад

Are you heading over to Shrewsbury Steam Rally next month Dan?

@SteamOTR Месяц назад

No, I tried to get in but alas wasn't successful.

@RanDomRikM Месяц назад

@@SteamOTR that's a shame, what was their reason for not allowing you in?

@SteamOTR Месяц назад

They just told me I hadn't been successfull.

@Cezaelizabeth Месяц назад

@SteamOTR there is a bit of a waiting list for Shrewsbury, from memory they dont have a huge miniature section (mainly full size) worth the wait though . I recommend a visit for the day in the meantime.

@SteamOTR Месяц назад

@@Cezaelizabeth May well do just that 👍
