The title comes from the name of the engine on the front of the firebox. From our last Camera Club Annual Outing way back in June to the Yorkshire Museum of Farming at Murton Park near York, when they had a Fathers’ Day Vintage Transport Rally displaying traction engines and other vehicles. A typical overcast day, but at least it stayed fine whilst we were there, and I think the bad weather put a lot of people off going, so it was easy to avoid stray bodies in the background! Wink

A fine set of this beautiful traction engine, Trev, and our presentation is, as always, superb. Carol

Three excellent captures, Trev, and what a great subject!
My preference is for V2 with its mechanical details - I'm a bit of a sucker for such things. Lovely tones. The movement in the spinning flywheel is most effective, too.

Traction engines are one of the few things I like to see ''pristine'' Trev,
and not all grotty and rusty !!
A well coloured example here.

for an overcast day you do have some movement in the sky which is encouraging when taking pics a good result IMO

That's a beautifully well kept piece of old farm machinery Trev. Must have been an interesting outing to see all these. Especially like the closer details in v2 and v3.

To get V 1 at such an event devoid of folk milling around is remarkable: a very strange power arrangement......and a very well presented shot of it.
And I do like the close ups too.....fine detail and textures captured, Trev.

I love those old steam machines Trevor, we have a Museum not far from here. Three great images, the close up detail is excellent.
