Hi Dave didn't Fred Dibnah demolish a wall or gate post with his steam engine I think they don't have any brakes John |

Hi John Yes, you're right, he did. Got it on a DVD somewhere. I think they do have brakes, 'cos on another (?) DVD he's scrounging some poplar, IIRC, for brake blocks. Dave BC |

To quote one of the characters in "All Gas and Gaiters", "Oh, Calamity". To quote me, "Ouch" They do have brakes, but steel tyres have little or no grip. Ned |
