This big 3 day rally over the long weekend has steam engines at work, vintage earthmoving equipment, stationary engines, vintage cars, working Draught Horses, tractors and trucks as well as numerous other machines from Australia’s agricultural and industrial past. The Lyttelton 2 steam tug’s engine room has been recreated. The steam tug’s 2 towering steam engines take centre stage, one restored, with many of the important ancillary engines and pumps located as they were in the tug’s engine room now restored and operational. This has been restored and is now fully operational in our arena, providing our visitors with a unique opportunity to see inside one of these huge machines.
