Snow in Durham.

Today we got some snow. Not think enough to settle, but it was good enough for me, so I got my mamod 'Jane' out and had a run. Here's some pics.

Enjoy!

We had 3-4 inches of snow today. It settled and kept snowing until about 11am.

I went out into the garden as my track was still there from yesterday, and I had a job finding it

I was going to run Anna out in the snow, but due to the cold I couldn't get the safety valve out!

Nice pics Matt

The snow wasn't so great for me though, we had to cancel our trip up to Scarborough because the motorways weren't gritted

It snowed but didn't settle when I was at Williams yesterday, it was strange one moment it was nice and sunney, the next b****y cold and snowing.
Thanks to William for a great afternoon at the SHR

(Pics to come when I get back home)

Nice to see a Mamod in the snow.

What is that you've got on in the cab Matt? A lubricator or a gas burner perhaps?

It's a lubricator that ptlrcecil's dad fitted when he rebuilt the mamod for me. I'm not to sure which maker it's from.

I belive it's a genuine Sparkes Engineering article?

I'm not too sure. He said something about getting it from a friend who had some spares.

I've been chatting with the PTLR staff this evening and I believe it to be a genuine Sparkes Engineering lubricator, but please don't quote me on this.

I believe my Mamod, 'YDG' has a genuine home manufactured lubricator made by the same PTLR engineer!
