Old Bill Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 HAve you found the photos in the 'Stilltime Collection'? http://www.stilltimecollection.co.uk/search/q/0-3,1,4,2-3-0-0-0-1-1-palladium.html I can't post them here but they are nice and clear and worth investing in copies. Good luck with it! Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PITT24423 Posted October 15, 2019 Author Share Posted October 15, 2019 Don`t know the guy that posted this but this road run is very good and we all have fish and chips on Felixstowe sea front .This section of road is probably the emptiest section as the all the rest was lined with people waving union jack and so on. There is a hill somewhere !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm local to the area and never knew a thing about it Its organised by Ipswich Transport Museum ,I know they have more applicants than places so apply early is all I can advise .The section shown on the clip is probably the dullest section and isn`t that long as the rest of the route is through Ipswich ,villages and of course Felixstowe with all the pubs on route are decorated and has a cracking atmosphere from start to finish.

PITT24423 Posted September 2, 2021 Author Share Posted September 2, 2021 (edited) As there was no Dorset SteamFair this year for a second year my son and I decided to drive the lorry from Mersea to the Swanage railway event at Corfe Castle using as many back roads as possible being part of the challenge.The total distance traveled was 450 odd miles there and back. The drive down we split over two days with an overnight stop near Winchester due to getting held up in London which was snarled up with the Extinction Rebellion bunch.With the return journey in one hit which we managed with relative ease but a long day. The chain ferry from Sandbanks to Swanage was on our to do list the only cruel part being some nasty hills on the way especially in Bournemouth coming away up from the pier which was a bottom gear crawl. My daughter luckily had a site meeting near Tower Bridge and a combination of will and “find my friends “ a passing wave was achieved.
