This definitely caught my eye !

Based on a Burrell steam roller, the crane is an interesting - if weighty - addition.
The plastic jerry cans contain additional water supplies.

Quite a bit of ash has just been raked out - not the easiest of jobs on a miniature.
Apparently, some of the supplied coal needs a hot fire to burn, and this one is running with Fros-y-Fran ovals [briquettes] to get the hotter fire needed.

BSA Bantam D7 Super, registered as built in 1965. regno HVK 159C

173cc two-stroke aka bag of hammers ... I can say that with feeling as I have a 1966 D7/D10 hybrid / bitza - being a bit picky here, but this should have the round badge, not this pear-shaped one. Nice restoration work.

The various vehicles entered by BM Stafford. The only one not visible is the Fowler road locomotive "Providence" which I think is still in the "playpen" towing one of the heavy haulage trailers around. Oh, plus the Scammell ballast tractor {LTW 419}, I don't think that's here either.
L -> R
i) 1937 Sentinel S4 regno BTD 868 [earlier this was rushing around the playpen, in company with the other S4 here - the one liveried for "Price's Bread].
ii) I think that this is a1934 Morris regno JC 1900
iii) 1977/78 AEC regno WYC 879S
iv) 2004 Foden [i think the regno is PX04 HWV}

One view of the classic cars on display, I didn't really get a good look at what was here. I was told that Sunday is usually the better day for cars.

Longest row had 15 spaces in it, and there were four rows - 4 x 15 = 60, plus several small commercial vans & 4WDs in various places. The visible gaps are because some people had already left for the day.
