Hi everyone,
We went to Welland Steam Rally on Sunday, as it was recommended by Texas Pete, and it was very good.
I've never seen so many traction engines!
They even had displays with wood-cutting machines, as well as ploughing.
There were loads of classic cars, some models, including and RC heavy machinery area, and a model MAZ 537!
There was a decent section for military vehicles, including a ZIL 131 I'd not seen before:

and a BRDM-2 that looked familiar:

Also there was this cool thing, which wasn't Russian, but I'd not seen it before:

It is a British AEC truck (never heard of that make!) with an awesome extendable-side RAF back on it.
Now if only I could find one of them, we could go on holiday more often because we could take all the rabbits :)
