Today started out warm & sunny as we headed up the A19 to Ryhope to see the marvelous pumping engine in steam. What a superb piece of Victorian engineering and a joy to see it working. The team of dedicated volunteers have certainly done a great job. Unfortunately my camera doesn't do a very good job indoors so the pictures are unusable.
I did get a few outdoor pictures.

This super MG TC belongs to Ian Tunnicliffe, who didn't have far to travel, being from Sunderland.
These magnificent machines were just in the gateway and were wonderful to see as we walked in.
This little baby was for sale, and I was very tempted but didn't dare ask the price.
There must have been well over 100 cars of all ages there, as well as craft stalls, model displays, and the very necessary food & drink.
It was well worth the visit, even though we were only there for a couple of hours we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and will keep an eye open for the next steaming. Hopefully we'll be able to go in the TA next time.
