A weekend with our grand old ladies

The weeks photos I took on a busy weekend out with our engine "Victoria" and "Lady" which we give a hand looking after. On the Saturday we took "Victoria" to a local village fete in Rogate about 6 miles away and on the Sunday we took "Lady" to Singleton, West Sussex. A great weekend spent with two wonderful steam engines...

Victoria getting plenty of admirers at the fete. We had a good day but sadly we had heavy showers most of the afternoon. Not that we minded as I cooked hot dogs in the wagon and we had plenty of tea.

Not a site you see to often on the road, a showmans engine. She gives a wonderful sight, sounds and smells.

The next two pictures I can't make up my mind which one I prefer so I have put both on. I have always wanted to get a picture of Victoria coming over this bridge, hopefully I will in a couple of weeks when we will be doing this jounery with her.

See, which one do I like the best?

Maybe you could email me with which one you prefer.
