Foden D type steam lorry EU3764 on the road

Down the Clapham A6 bypass about 15mph

That is just fantastic! The flywheel is a bit unnerving though, don't stretch your legs hahah!!!

My dad and Uncle Roy used to run this exact Engine. I was caught in the cab at a rally when I was about 5yrs old about 40+ yrs ago and a valve went and filled the cabin with steam.

Roy is sadly missed and I enjoyed being with him.

​@@rwhb1 He took me once on his night shift in Elsenham train station, kept waking me up to open the gates for the trains running through, he was married to my mums sister Heather and used to live in the house right next to the station with the little shop on the side. still remember it clearly to this day. Used to have me and my sisters down the farm cleaning the wheels on the Foden and we used to sneak off and go play in the old steam trains. Great days.

@@rwhb1 I take it the Foden is still running and going to rallies? if so could you please send me the dates and locations you'll attend? I'd love to see the ol girl once again.
