Steam driven Fire Engine

By JuBarney
Perhaps worth viewing large

Taken back in 2013 at Boconnoc, near Liskeard, when these chaps were demonstrating the power of the water hose with the lovely backdrop of the lake which the steam guys - and my late brother included - had cleared from trees, tree stumps and overgrown vegetation a couple of years before with their steam engine ploughers and winches.

Perhaps not the best equipment for tackling a house fire, with the time it takes to get up a head of steam. However, ideal in static conditions for winching wood etc. Your image shows it well in action, Ju.
