Churston Steam Rally / Torbay Steam Fair.

This annual event here in Torbay attracts all manner of steam traction engines, from tractors to road vehicles and everything inbetween - http://www.torbaysteamfair.com/.

Along with displays of static engines acting as water pumps and engines connected to alternators charging car batteries, the latter gave me an idea of running a club radio station next year off a steam engine...

This event is just a great day out, the sights and smells are fantastic !
