Stormin 4,458 #6 Posted July 27, 2014 I like the Atco bike as well. Two engines. I think the Yard Hand could do with a bigger flywheel and what's the little grey tractor by Chris's display? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the showman 4,074 #8 Posted July 27, 2014 The Farmall belongs to a friend of mine, the engine is a V8 diesel (has Ford on the rocker boxes) from a fire engine and puts down 400 ft lbs of torque. He has a couple more but its just to big for a Wheelhorse, did sound nice though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vinnetrow 129 #9 Posted July 27, 2014 Wow, this is really neat! You see so many photos and videos taken over the course of the weekend and wonder where they end up. Ian(AKA ukwheelhorsebloke on YT) sent us a link via YT to check the forum out. Ian does such a great job of capturing the whole build of his projects, but we will try to do take some pics and post them here 'cause you guys seem like a good bunch. I'm trying to get a bit of a Facebook thing going for our group The Villagers, who travel to various shows throughout the year. So if your on the Facebooks check out https://www.facebook.com/pages/Villagers-Collectors-of-Stuff/131182450315017 our next show is Rudgwick Steam & Country Show so be sure to keep an eye out for a bunch of yellow t-shirts and pop over for a chat. The pictures and response has been great to see! Many thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vinnetrow 129 #17 Posted July 29, 2014 This was our section of The Villagers display. Noon on Saturday, we took the Atco bike, followed by the steamer towing the soon to be completed Foden to the beer tent. Which started a trend, only the steam engines got larger.
