Demonstrating winching and haulage with a pair of miniature traction engines owned by a couple of friends of mine.
The larger engine is a 3" scale freelance miniature traction engine named 'Alfred' and has recently fitted a new boiler amongst other restoration work. Alfred is an early miniature engine that was built by a relation of the haulage contractor Cliff James up in the Midlands and any further information on its history would be welcomed.
The smaller engine is a 2" scale Savage agricultural engine. A very unusual model in any scale and little is known about it's prior history. The current owner has restored and recommissioned it as well as repainting it from a rather horrible green and red colour scheme, and it is now awaiting lining and other finishing touches.
