Here are some late pictures from the Black Country Museum.

Not much of interest as most of the pictures I took are for use for research for my garden railways buildings.

There are a few more to be posted over the next few days and a few videos Smile

A Modelworks Likamobile...damned fun! Im on the right seat Very Happy









The Museums own Turner (I think) steam car



My stand





Burrell Crane Engine 'Old Tim'. This engine used to work only a few miles away from the site for Screens Brothers. A freind of ours, John Reeves who is a reporter for Vintage Spirit magazine can be seen hiding behind one of the posts. Laughing



Caught!  Laughing

No, if only! Laughing It belonged to an elderly couple who I was talking to in the morning, I was then showed me around the car with each panel removed and each part explained and was then given a ride.

A freind of mine also owns one and I have been promised a drive. Was meant to have a go on it at the MSRVS show but the inverter on the burner failed Crying or Very sad
