Good evening Richard . I could easily move to your part of the world . There's so much to see . Those wonderful steam pumps and the scale models .....incredible ! You're supposed to be slimming down not buying more goodies !!!😅 Thanks Richard
All the while I was looking at those beautiful steam pumps I was thinking of Fred Dibnah explaining to his viewers how it all worked. I think the Gent did a good job too. A good deal of skill goes into those scale models as well. A good variety of cars and some commercials at this event . Some of those motorbikes were a sight to see, wonderful. Thanks for the video Rick, very well done. 👍👍
Fabulous engineering, including the amazing scale models. Such a contrast to today's digitised, plastic, throw-away stuff that will never last as long. Loved the two stately Rover P4s and the Chalmers - what a beast! Thanks for a thoroughly enjoyable video!
Thanks for the education on the huge steam engine pumps. As you showed the equipment my mind went to, "How many gallons of polish do they go through each year to keep the brass and copper shiny?" Those models are also amazing in their detail. I remember stories of a manager at a company I worked for that would write out work orders for the shop to make parts for his scale steam locomotive. He almost had it finished when the owner got drift of it and fired him on the spot. The workers always knew what and who they were for because they looked nothing like the parts they made every day!
Amazing pumping station and car show video😮😮😊 Very well presented 😊 Great display of alvis cars , and other classics , tractors, and engines😮 Thanks for a great show😮😮😊😊
What an amazing place.....cant understand why I have never heard of it.....another place your channel has been thats now been put on my to got to list....thank you Sir.
Thanks for posting this Richard - delighted to see my 100e catch your attention (1.00:03 and 1:05:09). Excellent commentary on all the vehicles too. Always a pleasant day out a Mill Meece. All the best John
Thank you Richard for another very informative video conducted with gentle humour and a great passion for anything with moving parts. Glad that you seem to be consuming your sandwiches at a reasonable time. Out of interest, have you considered converting the Pilot to 12 volt electrics for a healthier spark and brighter headlamps? Perhaps you already have. Please keep the videos coming, including your excellent informative descriptions of jobs on the fleet.
Extra informative video with the steam angle. I got to thinking, didn't those old tractors ever come with functional freeze plugs to help ward off cracked blocks?
All the nice videos I've watched of yours.I sure don't see many rover cars.I was wondering, are there just not many of them out there? Of course, here in the USA they were never imported. I just always have my eye out for them.Because I have a 1947 Rover 14 Sports saloon.
Good Sir, I'm an American long time subscriber and we've had a bit of banter in the past. I enjoy your videos of shows like these- they are so different yet so alike such meets found in the Eastern USA. And I hope you don't mind my asking, but I specifically would appreciate your opinion. I posted a video yesterday of my list of top 10 pre-WWI British Petrolheads, and I've reached out to a few modern British Petrolheads that I know already but if you have the time and are willing, I would very much appreciate your feedback on that particular topic. Best Regards, Sir. -Wild Bill
Hi, I've popped it onto my "save to watch later" list and will check it out this week all being well. Outside the world of early racing I'm not too well up on the pioneer motorists if I'm honest!!
The 3/- stamped on the petrol can was the cost of the can full of petrol, in other words petrol cost 1/6 (7.5p!) per imperial gallon. You would exchange the full can for an empty one, thus the can was “free”. Petrol @130p/litre is about eighty times more expensive today!
The fittings on the Fordson rear wheels are, I believe, for extra traction the curved prongs could be moved and locked in the horizontal position to widen the wheel base., PS Should have watched whole video before responding. AJ

Yes there's lots going on when you start digging into events page online, inc Facebook etc where a lot of these events pop up.
that was a great video, hope you go there again. That Austin pick up looked the money 😅.
What a great location and event. So much to see and the working water pump is fantastic. Thanks for sharing an excellent video. Cheers Bob
Thanks Bob, yes a jolly pleasant day out
Yet another wonderful presented video, lovely filming, and so much info.
Many thanks!
Another top video at a top location with top cars filmed by the top classic car channel on YT , thanks very much.
You're too kind, thanks for following this stuff!
I’ve only got a bicycle but I really enjoy your episodes…….many of the older cars take me back…..many thanks and all the best to you and yours .
Glad you like them!

Thanks Stephen, it makes for an interesting day when these meets take place at such historic settings

Thanks Colin, it was a neat place to visit and I hope to go again one day soon
Great stuff, many thanks. AJ
Great old machinery !
Cheers From California !
Thanks 👍
I really like stationery engines. I can see owning one in the near future.

I hope he finally managed to finish it!
we dont use 2 pints of polish a year on the engines
Don't see car mud flaps these days on cars. I had a chuckle at the Morris one. Certainly a thing of the past. Good video. Thanks.
Thanks 👍
Glorious collection of vehicles......and that pumping engine is something else.
👍🏻👌🏻
Yep a fun and relaxed event, with the added bonus of epic old engineering too (slice of cake and a coffee was only a couple of quid-ish too)
Amazing pumping station and car show video😮😮😊
Very well presented 😊
Great display of alvis cars , and other classics , tractors, and engines😮
Thanks for a great show😮😮😊😊

Thanks John!
Interesting video RJ.
Thanks Vince, it was nice to have the old Ford out

Thanks Peter, the Pilot is happy enough on 6v so I'll leave well alone for now, thanks for watching
National Dried Milk was available well into the 1950s. There was orange juice as well.
Extra informative video with the steam angle. I got to thinking, didn't those old tractors ever come with functional freeze plugs to help ward off cracked blocks?
They may have freeze plugs but there was still a risk of something cracking, thanks for checking it out

Rovers do appear fairly often I thought, not a huge number of P2s or P3s but they are about, one often turns up at a pub meet that we go to

@@oldclassiccarUK Selwyn Edge made the list, if that helps.
The 3/- stamped on the petrol can was the cost of the can full of petrol, in other words petrol cost 1/6 (7.5p!) per imperial gallon. You would exchange the full can for an empty one, thus the can was “free”.
Petrol @130p/litre is about eighty times more expensive today!
It was the returnable deposit on the can, not the cost of the fuel in it. Thanks for watching.
The fittings on the Fordson rear wheels are, I believe, for extra traction the curved prongs could be moved and locked in the horizontal position to widen the wheel base., PS Should have watched whole video before responding. AJ
Indeed so, I added a bit more info in during the vid after speaking with someone I know who remembers these things. Thanks for watching.
I hope you remembered to go back for Harley 😵💫
Ah ...
