Berrybrook Steam at Powderham

The Berrybrook Steam Team was out in force at the 37th Historic Vehicle Gathering at Powderham over the weekend of 10th & 11th July 2010.

Organised by the Crash Box & Classic Car Club the event has become one of the largest of its type in the South West with a large display of Full Size and Miniatures.

The Arena display included a cavalcade of Steam on both days.

Very evident was the enthusiasm from the youngsters as can be seen here

Devon County Show May 2010

Under clear blue skies Berrybrook Steam had a thoroughly enjoyable three days at the Devon County Show at Westpoint, Exeter.

Sean steamed 'The General' to the showground from its base in Exminster, on the Wednesday evening prior to the event.

A good selection of other interesting machinery was on display as well.

Stithian Apprentice Day

Sean and The General visited the Stithian Apprentice Day at Truro over the May Bank Holiday Weekend.

The event this year was organised by Richard Stock of the WESES Group and the National Traction Engine Trust (NTET)

Sean was allocated two apprentices; Julia MacClaren and Josh Sandow, both aged 11. Their excellent efforts helped to get the engine ready for another steaming day including large amounts of brass cleaning.

The weather was ideal and we would like to thank the organisers for a well put on event

Cambourne Trevithick Day

Large crowds watched as 30 full size and 15 miniatures engines made their way through Cambourne on Saturday 24th April.

So crowded in fact that we had to wait till the spectators could be moved before we could make more headway leading the two processions. We also generated lights all day in the Lowanac Hotel car park.

A lot of interest was also shown in Matt's Jenson gas-fired steam engine
