Dorset Steam Fair 2009.

Wandering around and this struck me as a really well preserved and looked after wagon.

Hope you like and C&C always appreciated.

You're right, it looks almost brand new. Nice to see the old vehicles well looked after.

Hi from Salisbury.

A dry Steam Fair, now that is a rare thing. For others who don't know, the Dorset Steam Fair attracts the rain the same way that Tennis at Wimbledon does.
