Riverside steam ralley
Over 20 full sized steam engines will be colouring the Riverside pastures on this fine April 27th 2014 weekend, including the only surviving Foden-built Showman's engine 'Prospector'. Steam fans will be thrilled with the authentic results and attention to detail our full-size and miniature engine owners uphold.
One of my favourite Walter Woolfenden pictures tidied up for a second airing.
Will check old notes for description shortly
Something different to see at Horsted Keynes station, a pause in our trip on the Bluebell Railway. We had not expected traction engines and steam rollers as well.
Owned by the South Peace Centennial Museum, this is the oldest engine in our collection. Very few of this small, early model were produced. It came to Heisler AB in 1912 & to the Spirit River/Woking area in 1922 where it was used for threshing & to power a sawmill until the late 1930s. In 1964 it was purchased by Fred Tveter & Arnold Christianson who took it to Valhalla & restored it. In 1967 it moved to the McLean farm near Beaverlodge to form the basis of the first Pioneer Day which led to the establishment of the South Peace Centennial Museum. It was last used in 1998 as the 1999 testing confirmed the boiler unsafe for further operation. The engine is complete & authentic in all detail & the SPCM hopes to eventually raise the $55,000 needed to replace the boiler.
This unusual steam shunting engine does not have a fire box.It was used by Proctor and Gamble in a volatile environment.The engine has an extra large boiler which would give a couple of hours of running when it was charged from an external steam supply.
It now stands in a field off the A426 in Blaby Leicestershire.
Reserve Engine 501 is a 1998 Seagrave Marauder equipped for structural responses. She previously served as Engine 1 from 1998 to 2007 when she was replaced by a quint. This apparatus then moved to Station 5 running as Engine 5 from 2007 until 2015 when it was replaced by a newer Seagrave. Today, Reserve Engine 501 serves as the primary reserve engine for the department.
