SOUTH COAST
RESTORATION SOCIETY, 32nd ANNUAL RALLY, 2013:
The Rally had it all, Stationary Engines,
Steam Engines, Classic Cars and Motorcycles, Historic Tractors and farming
displays. The Rally highlight for me was the successful running of the
'Porter Steam Roller' which had languished in a Park for fifty two years and
then endured a further eight year major restoration.

successful running after sixty (60) years. |
