It has been over a year since I last went to a traction engine rally and the only “road vehicles” I seem to take photos of these days are those seen at events on the Severn Valley Railway. As I have thousands of photos from the rallies, it seems a shame not to look back through them occasionally & add some of them to these pages.
There is no real plan of action at the moment. I’m hopeless at identifying cars & lorries, but have a good reference book for steam road vehicles, so that is a good place to start. A few minutes ago I added a post with a photo of a Sentinel steam wagon/bus, it is the same size as the train photos, which seem to fit these pages well. There is also a link to other photos of that vehicle as seen in the gallery.
As I only see trains 2 or 3 times a week, perhaps on the other days I’ll post a photo of a road vehicle. It might spur me on to sort through the many photos that have never been uploaded or perhaps even organise the ones with no captions in the gallery. We’ll see how it goes.
Class DG4P built 1932. Originally built with a flat back, during 2003/4 it was rebuilt to look like an original Sentinel steam bus.
