“Steam Engines are what made England great – and they don’t answer back! You can belt them with a hammer and they say nowt.”
Fred Dibnah was famous for his great restoration work with England’s great Steam Engines. This is a unique tribute to the magnificent machines which proudly travelled the roads of Britain. Fred was fascinated with steam at a very early age and soon bought his first Steam Roller to restore and thus learn a second trade – his first being Britain’s favourite steeplejack!
