SOME OF THE ENGINES IN OUR COLLECTION
|
|
We currently have an 8 tonne 1917 Aveling and Porter steam roller 'Phyllis', which is an ideal engine for novice steam enthusiasts to learn the basics of driving a steam powered vehicle.
|
|
| Our large stationary engine is used to crush stone and is perfect for demonstrations. Autumn 2007 we hope our largest engine 'The Lion' will arrive in France after a refit. She is without doubt the largest steam road locomotive built by John Fowler of Leeds (a B6 Big Lion). Not for the faint hearted with a maximum speed of 27 mph and capable of pulling in excess of 100 tonnes she is impressive and will offer enthusiasts a fantastic experience. |

Our miniature railway with a 7 1/4 inch locomotive runs on a 300m circuit of track through the farms orchards and poultry runs in the summer season. The kettle boiler, crane, locomotive is due to be put on a new line and will increase the diversity of steam experiences we can offer.

|
The Steam Boat will be launched on the 'Canal de Bourgogne' and allow for summer cruises through picturesque Burgundy and picnics in quiet (normally in accessible) locations.
