54 - West Oxon Steam and Vintage Rally Rises Again

Fantastic to see such a successful recovery after last years mud bath at Ducklington.
The rallies we expect to be at this year are -
26th-28th July Bocconoc Steam Rally, Cornwall
2nd-4th August South Cerney Vintage Extravaganza
16th-18th August Fairford Steam Rally
31st-1st Septemer North Cotswold Steam Rally, Northleach
21st-22nd September Stoke Prior Rally
28th-29th September Kettering Steam Rally
We may not get to all of them, but certainly expect to be at most if not all of the above.
Let me know if there are any others you think I should get to.

I've recently got into steam traction engines after getting the privilege of steering a 1927 Foden showmans wagon at Powderham castle. I'm going to my first proper steam fair next month in Devon. Fingers crossed for some nice weather. Keep up the good work with your videos. ✌️

Thank you. we're in Cornwall next weekend at the Bocconoc Steam Rally

@@SteamOTR I can't make that event sadly, but I'll be going to the Torbay Steam Fair. Fingers crossed for nice weather for both events 🤞

Another great video Dan. Thank You. Good to see all the hard work paying off and everyone enjoying themselves.

[@SteamOTR]

Thanks. Really glad you enjoyed it.

Lovely video Dan! Good depth of soil there for growing stuff, not so good for rallying on. Looks like everyone was mucking in and helping each other though. 👌

[@SteamOTR]

Yeah, cracking weekend. Decent layer of light loamy sil on top of clay!

[@PhoneVidoes]

Looks like quite a good one but those ruts and the fact you're based opposite the spit bangs would be me off a tadge. One for me to keep an eye on to see if they improve things me thinks.

It's a great rally, and hopefully the ground will improve.

Can't help wondering when you ll be looking for a big engine for yourself Dan

[@SteamOTR]

Hehe - Yes, I'd love to, but still a long way off financially.
