a couple of Englishmen have been working on building a new steam tractor, a Fowler B6 Road Lion Steam Locomotive, from the 1930s designs,

To celebrate our 150th anniversary, Morris Lubricants has launched the "Talisman Tour". This has seen Alex Sharphouse of Old Hall Farm building a Talisman B6 Steam Road Locomotive from scratch. He's got some help from friend and Morris brand ambassador Guy Martin.

The above videos give you an idea, but watch this other video for a better look at the whole process https://www.facebook.com/Morrislubricants/videos/191275025132711/UzpfSTEwNDE4Njc5MDIyOjEwMTU2MjIxODQzOTQ0MDIz/

  1. Very interesting craft these gentlemen do to bring back a piece of history. These machines are works of art with function as well. It odd though that the fellow is speaking English, but I can barely understand what the hell he's saying. Glad for the subtitles. ;)
