1971 Carr Fowler Ploughing Victory
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Fowler Ploughing Engine number 15451 Victory, proudly displayed at Carr Park on May 30, 1971. Registration number SD 9378 adorns the side of this historic steam engine, adding to its distinctive character. The Fowler Ploughing Engine, a symbol of agricultural innovation during the 1970s, was a common sight in rural communities during that era. The Victory, with its powerful presence and intricate details, embodies the essence of the steam transport revolution. Its rustic charm and robust design are a testament to the ingenuity and determination of its creators. The engine's large wheels, covered in soot and grime from countless hours of labor, speak to the tireless work it has performed throughout its life. The photograph captures a moment in time when steam power was still a viable and essential force in transportation. The 1970s, a time of transition between the old and the new, saw the decline of steam power in favor of more modern technologies. This image serves as a poignant reminder of the era when steam engines like the Fowler Ploughing Engine number 15451 Victory played a crucial role in shaping the agricultural landscape. The William Kerry Collection, from which this photograph is sourced, is a treasure trove of historical images that offer a glimpse into the past. This photograph, in particular, is a must-see for anyone with an interest in steam transport, agricultural history, or the 1970s.
