Stumble It!
We currently own and operate a steam roller, one steam portable engine and one diesel roller from our base in Maldon. The steam roller is a Wallis & Steevens 8 Ton. Our old Aveling & Porter 8 Ton roller has now gone to her new owner Mick (of Naiad Plastics) in Littlehampton and we hope to get update information on her progress for inclusion here. The traction engine has now also gone to its new owner. We hope to have more news of it as the restoration progresses.
Currently the Wallis is available for Steaming days, and you will find us at many of the local steam rallies. Our Steaming days can be ordered in the form of a gift voucher, which makes an ideal gift for men of any age, and of course many ladies also enjoy the thrill of steam. Dave got a voucher from his children for his birthday, and brought his mate Peter on one of our Steaming days recently. Here is a few pictures from the trip.
Please take a moment to register with us. We are hoping to do an occasional newsletter for members, and there will be opportunities to come and get involved in maintenance and servicing days.
Order NOW to ensure you get one. Full details and order form here.
You can get a good idea of what we do from the detailed photo sequences showing the sand-casting process and the Wallis steam-up routine which shows the detailed steaming-up sequence in preparation for your steam trip.
