Hi Guys, sorry for not posting much recently, been busy. I have been at the Macksville rusty engine rally. The call went out, last year, to beat the world record for the number of old stationary engines running simultaneously. The previous record was held by South Africa with 207 running for 10 minutes. Today Australia managed 333 old stationary engines running at the same time for 10 minutes! We could probably have got close to 400 but we had a few non starters. I will probably be coughing up the fumes and smoke for weeks to come. :laugh:
So I guess that throws out the challenge to those of you in the rest of world, can you do better?
Bob.

Hi Glort, sadly I did not show any of my engines but I did join in with a couple of groups that did show theirs.
I would dearly love to have something that ran on steam.
