RMweb Gold Adrian Stevenson Posted September 10, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 10, 2022 Back at Statfold Barn once again for the Road, Rail and Ale event this weekend. We arrived last night to find a very busy camping field full of caravans and motorhomes. Never seen this many here before. They are having eight engines in steam plus the tram and several traction engines. I will take photos today and post them up later. Off now to cook a full English breakfast to set us up for the day. Cheers, Ade. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Adrian Stevenson Posted September 11, 2022 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted September 11, 2022 First exhibits as you entered the show were the ex military vehicles. The Airborne Jeep with 6 prd ammo tins is owned by a friend of mine and is off to Arnhem next weekend. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Adrian Stevenson Posted September 11, 2022 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted September 11, 2022 Sawing demonstration which was impressive. By the end of the day they had a good pile of nicely cut planks. I think it was the collection owner in charge. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Adrian Stevenson Posted September 11, 2022 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted September 11, 2022 Our friend Linda has always wanted to drive a tractor. I do like to see unrestored vehicles so the owner let her sit on this one. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Adrian Stevenson Posted September 11, 2022 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted September 11, 2022 Just a couple of pics of some of the classic cars. Again I like the unrestored Gary truck from the 1920’s ? I guess? 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if they will ever put any overhead wires up for it at Statfold? Rather surprised you can see the marks on the dash panel where the trolley retriever was fixed, given it appears to have been repainted since it returned "home". 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Adrian Stevenson Posted September 11, 2022 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted September 11, 2022 Given the quality of the site, it wouldn’t me if it were done in time. This was the first time we had seen the garden railway open. Motive power was a Simplex. Very nice landscape garden with a large pond. The driver was allowing kids to have their photos taken in the driver’s seat. So another big kid had his photo taken. 😀 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
