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.

Didn't mean to include the dumpster in the line-up. There were 12 full-size engines listed in the rally handbook, at least 10 are visible.

Part of the full size steam line. Nearest the camera - is the Robey "Tandem" roller, then the brown Armstrong Whitworth "Albert" [he;'s quite rare, AW are better known as Ship and armament builders ...

Almost all the full size steamers are now in the arena, ranging from a Robey "Tandem" roller [the red one on the extreme right] to various Fowlers and Showman's, plus a Sentinel S4 steam waggon. The last ones to enter were the matched pair of Fowler ploughing engines, currently just leaving their base on steam line.
