What's stressful about owning old vehicles?
What's stressful about owning old vehicles?
Well . . . here is Nick, the owner of all the vehicles detailed on this website, resting after a hectic day at Whitwell Station Steam Rally 2017.
Nick owns and maintains this collection of vintage/classic vehicles with a little assistance from Alan a couple of days a week.
To give credit where credit is due . . . Oz gave a good deal of assistance in the late 1990s and early 2000s, Mark is still on hand for any assistance needed if wood is involved. Tina is THE scone baker and Babara is THE picnic maker . . .
Retired (maybe?) Agricultural Engineer - he's been fixing things ever since he could hold a spanner. Most of the collection are, generally, vehicles or machinery no one else could be bothered to fix.

Retired (definitely) Technical Manager of the media group Archant.
From about 1988 assisting Nick with his "project work" one night a week. Since retiring, in 2017, assisting Nick two days a week. Pictured in 2017 at the keyboard of Thorpe Print Centre's restored Linotype 78 machine.
