Absolute highlight of my day when i get a notification to say you've added a video, and not just one but 2 this time! Thank you for the great videos! 🤙😎
Really pleased you like them!
love the video and personally i love working on traction engines their such great fun to drive and fire
And rather addictive too!
@@SteamOTR totally agree i joined the regional steam club and earning my steam ticket plus at the last two big weekend shows i was allowed to drive n fire and somehow was allowed to drive one on the motorway
What a great video for those that are beginners to there own engine especially starting out great footage mate
Thanks very much
@@SteamOTR i have got the same engineers oil can
Great video, hope to one day bump into you.
Great. Come and say hello!
Nice to meet you and have a chat at the Abbey hill rally
Ditto 👍
found your videos and have been binging the last couple days, looking forward to the start of rally season down here in Cornwall, really enjoy what I see, and it's great you road run it as well
I'll be in Cornwall for the Bocconoc Rally 👍
Absolutely gutted to have missed you at this one! Still early in the season will be plenty more to meet you at yet, love watching your videos mate well done! Such a great little rally as well this one.
Hope to catch you somewhere along the line.
Yes I think you have it right!
A well run and well supported rally by the look of it!
Looking forward to your next outing Dan.👍
Won't be long!
Hang on a minute, wheres the bit where you've let fire go out because you're gassing to neighbouring steam nuts and totally forgotten your supposed to be tending to a new fire and then have to start all over again, or is that just me that does that 🤣🤣
*cough* never happens to me 🤣

Steam on the Road It's our first rally of the season and we're out at Abbey Hill Steam Rally in Yeovil. LOVE LOUIS SHIRLEY
Great rally. Really enjoyed it.
Awesome,Dan.
Thanks!
@@SteamOTR You're welcome.
Another great video. I'm currently building a 6" Ransomes Compound but as a straight twin and a 6" Burrell Agricultural Traction Engine. I also own a nice 3" Fowler A7. Just a heads up with the background music, it's very loud and overbearing, I'd rather just hear you chat and listen to what is going on around you.
The engines sound great. Good luck with the build, and thanks for the feedback.
best practice to start the build up of steam slowly so everything can expand at a slow rate to make sure you don't get leaks from tubes etc. I cringed a bit as you didn't mention opening the drain cocks on first turn over to let any condensation out of the cylinders to avoid hydraulicking.
Truth be told, it was the second time, as I forgot to film the first. Drain cocks were open then, you're 100% right.
@@SteamOTR ah ok no worries. I have seen the devistation from not doing this. but yeah my draincocks are left open when parked up so I don't forget when I light up next time I start up
That's a good habit I need to adopt. It's too easy to forget.
See you at the weekend then Dan, myself and Mark will be there with the Foden. Looking forward to it 👍
They pick up steam faster on wood mate
OK. That's not what I've found, but I'll take your word for it!
