My grandad said they used to race traction engines!!
WE have a live steam model about 3 foot long that he made from scratch apart from the odd casting,he made 3 of these! one for each relative! he also made an alchin (spelling?) but thats in canada with my aunt now.
Oh and a 2.5" gauge flying scotsman live steam, a 5" gauge railmoter and loads of little stationary engines.
Good to play with when I was a kid using compressed air.
what type of engine is that then?? A7??
