Michael Davison brought his 1889 built Marshall Traction Engine ‘Mary Margaret’ to operate over the four days of the Easter period. Working singly and with a living van that Michael and his team are restoring, the Marshall proved to be an enormous crowd pleaser, attracting large numbers of admirers across the museum site. My thanks to Michael, Mike, Graham, Matt and Simon for the care they took in presenting and operating the engine throughout the weekend. Hopefully we will see them back before too long…
