TRACTION ENGINE IN ACTION

THE ARMY AT DUNKIRK FARM STEAM FAIR
There was a Tug-of-War competition between a Tank and a Traction Engine.
I wonder which one won!
[ Note: The Army used Centurion Tanks from 1946.  Chieftain Tanks were introduced in 1966. ]

 

MINIATURE STEAM ENGINE & TRAIN
Great for the Kids   -   Big and Little!
[ Once again, an Electricity Pylon confirms the Location. ]

 

STEAM POWERED WAGGON
Plenty to do and see at this Fair.   A Great Day Out!
[ Note the old cars. ]
