Henny 2004 Working Day Report

Farm Machinery Preservation Society Working Day 2004

Gt Henny Sudbury

Thanks go to Mark, Dick and Colin Cracknell For allowing F.M.P.S. to once again put on a great show of working farm machinery.

Unfortunately the weather, while starting off fine always threatened to rain (which it did from around 2pm onward) and I think that put a lot of people off so the public attendance was I am afraid poor.

This is Norman Wasteney's very original Blackstone. A lot of effort goes in to transporting and running an engine like this. This is a Case with a very interesting history, used by the RNLI to pull Lifeboats out of the sea around Suffolk. A very nice Crossley running sweetly. An American Half track, I do not know any of its history.

Peter Earl's lovely CS "Startomatic" Generator. Tom Fisher's 1930 Ruston & Hornsby AP 2.5hp driving a Lister H2 Spray pump. The Tractor line I did know what this was when I took the picture, someone will remind me.

A Canadian Witte Drag saw And another view This is a Wolseley "WD" driving an unusual Wolseley Pump.
