This definitely caught my eye ! Based on a Burrell steam roller, the crane is an interesting - if weighty - addition. The plastic jerry cans contain additional water supplies. Quite a bit of ash has just been raked out - not the easiest of jobs on a miniature. Apparently, some of the supplied coal needs a hot fire to burn, and this one is running with Fros-y-Fran ovals [briquettes] to get the hotter fire needed.

Wallis "Simplicity" roller, miniature / scale. Named "Joybells" IIRC she was at Corbridge this year

Robey Tandem steam roller "Wilma" {built 1924, regno FE 6255, wksno 41593, 3 1/2 npa , 8 tons} I must admit that I like the concept of these little rollers.

First Rally Appearance - and very splendid it looks ! {1-12} Sentinel S4 No.9278 in Stafford's livery built in 1937 as a short 3-way tipper, then converter to a tar sprayer. rescued from a scrap yard in 1956, it was rallied extensively until the 1970s, including appearing at Duncombe in 1963. It then stood awaiting attention for many years. A full restoration was completed a few years ago and she came here from Co.Durham under her own steam. .

Marshall Roller, "Jolly Joyce" built 1929. single cylinder, piston valve develops 6hp. Maker's No. 83270 RegNo. VH 1261. These were often sold as "convertibles" with a set of engine wheels as an optional extra.

Into preservation in Suffolk during1966, and purchased by James Key in 1982.

One rare beast here. An Armstrong steam roller "Albert" visiting the Tanfield Railway in October 2018. The brown livery is a welcome change from the usual range of greens.
