Steam engine on the Bavarian Central Agricultural Festival 2008.
In the background you can see the Bavaria statue. The statue was built at the foundry of J.B. Stiglmair from 1844 until 1850, mainly by Stiglmair's nephew Ferdinand von Miller. Since the Bavaria is one of the biggest bronze sculptures in the world, it had to be built out of four big parts and several smaller ones. It is 18.52 metres (60 ft 9 in) high and weighs about 87.36 tonnes [1] (96.2 tons).

Armstrong-Whitworth were the result of a merger between Armstrong Mitchell & Co and Joseph Whitworth who invented the famous screw threads that bear his name. Armstrong-Whitworth went on to make cars and trucks, aircraft, armaments, ships, bridges, locomotives and road rollers. Needless to say, all the nuts and bolts on this roller have a Whitworth thread - the owner said that there are "none of those foreign bolts on my engine".
