What is it?

Looks like an excellent day out! The locomotive built from scrap metal - did it work or was it just a model?

What is it?

It's a petrol engine, used to power almost anything that needs a belt to drive it Turnip choppers for animal feed, pumps, generators and so on.

He said it works from compressed air, not fired it up in case something melts

Ah, so the steam fair is just about showing off different types of engines?

Those are some pretty cool old vehicles. I think the old fire engine looks really nice. The bicycles are cool too.

Wow, that certainly is impressive! The fact it works that is, not the risk of melting...
