I was just told that Fred Talbot showed a Stationary Engine Museum tonight. Did anyone see it & was it the Anson?

Didn't see nought down here, was this exclusive to northern types?

Yes it was us,three and a half hours filming produced a well edited little piece. Thought of all sorts after it was done but it was always going to be a short slot,all done ad lib.Fred was very interested in the engines and their uses,and he will try and do something again next year. It must do us all good to get Internal Combustion Engines a plug on the telly.

Maybe it helps if you're a telly watcher. At the risk of sounding grossly ignorant - who's Fred Talbot?

It wasn't on in the Bristol area. Did you get a copy Geoff? If so, could I scrounge a copy?

Hi Dave, We are in the process of doing the videos of our own engines for the Internal Fire site. If anyone has a copy of the video I'll convert it and put it onto The Anson site.

Even highly compressed though the full 4 minutes will be massive and really only practical for people with Broadband connections. It would have to be split into more manageable chunks for "slower" people.

There will also be some new video on the Northern Mill Engine Society site shortly at
