EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the vintage charm of The Bailie, a Burrell Showmans Road Locomotive with registration number GA 2168 and working number 3334. Built in 1911 by Charles Burrell & Sons in Thetford, Norfolk, this heavy agricultural machine is a testament to the engineering prowess of the past. Powered by an 8 Nhp compound steam engine, The Bailie was not designed for commercial use but rather for the thrill and spectacle of the showman's world. The image transports us back to the 1970s, a time when steam-powered machinery was still a common sight on the roads. The Bailie, with its intricate details and robust design, stands out against the backdrop of a rural landscape, exuding an aura of power and elegance. The steam engine, hissing and puffing, propels the locomotive forward, leaving a trail of steam in its wake. The Burrell Company, founded in 1828, was renowned for its high-quality agricultural machinery, and The Bailie is a prime example of their craftsmanship. This photograph is a reminder of a bygone era, a time when steam engines ruled the roads and the simple pleasure of watching machinery in action was a source of wonder and delight. The Bailie continues to captivate us with its timeless beauty and the nostalgia it evokes.
