  • In this video I attended the Leyland SME Traction Attraction event held on the 23rd April 2023. The event is for the club members to steam up there traction engines & road vehicles ahead of the year steam events around the country. It gives chance to make sure they are running in tip top shape and any adjustments are made prior to the big events. Fantastic day had by all members and the public.

    Model engineering. A craft i hope to take in the future. Engines, gears, machines and clocks. A craft that involves all mechanical stuff I love. I applaud these engineers and their wonderful machines! ⚙️👏

    Brilliant video as usual my friend. Wish you had mentioned the event, would have "popped" along with my engine... Then again you could have "popped down" to borrow it for a while and use it yourself!

      Good ole Fred, he'd enjoy it, but I'd also think he'd have some choice words about the direction steam is taking. Right now the preservation scene needs a Fred to bring it back to the public attention. All the best, Matt 👍

    2:42 The Appleton & Brady flatbed is a very handsome machine, but what is that spit noise, that I don't hear other machines making? It's frequent not occasional, didn't fade out over time, and a few noises were quite rude. 5:38 There was one shot showing one unloading but for the number of machines there'd need to be quite a line of trailers. Are some stored on site?

    • @MattChiversWorkshop
      @MattChiversWorkshop  Год назад +1

      Hi Jim, that would be the pop type safety valves, they just let a quick blast out to keep pressure down, I found it rather annoying personally. Not something I'd ever fit to mine. None of these were stored on site, we don't have the space, everyone brought theirs on trailers, unloaded, then parked up on our car park. All the best, Matt 👍

      Although these have been built not bought, there are companies out there that sell such vehicles that others have built, like legacy vehicles over at www.legacyvehicles.co.uk. All the best, Matt 👍

    Why do so many of these pop? is it just the size of the steam dome at this scale?
