Welland




At some steam rallies the organisers add to the ambiance by recreating the atmosphere of various working activities from the past. Road making is one such activity.
For the first time at Welland, 'Big Dazza' and his crew were invited to recreate road making from long, long ago. Note the red and white poles and lamps. It is planned to continue this activity for the next foreseeable shows.
The crew of 'Big Dazza'; 'Little Daz', and 'Maggot' (Christopher Beale) looking down the road for inspiration, and also the building up traffic chaos they have caused.
You are no doubt wondering where I fit in. Drinking beer, and other numerous alcoholic beverages and eating. No seriously road making was not the only activity.
I was involved with the Fowler ploughing engine, 'Linkey' with Chris Beale and that will come in the next posting.
