In this print from June 15th, 1979, we are transported back to a simpler time. The image showcases a magnificent Fowler traction engine as it is put through its paces by none other than Mr Hubert Nixon, the esteemed President of the South Tyne Traction Engine Society. Set against the picturesque backdrop of Anick Grange Farm near Hexham, this rural scene exudes tranquility and nostalgia. The steam-powered engine stands proudly in the field, emanating power and history with every puff of smoke. Its vintage charm is undeniable. Mr Nixon's expertise shines through as he skillfully maneuvers the impressive machine, showcasing his passion for engineering and dedication to preserving these mechanical marvels. His presence adds an air of authority to the scene. The two men captured in this moment remain unknown ages but their shared enthusiasm for traction engines is evident. Their leisurely pursuit on that summer day speaks volumes about their love for these machines - a testament to how hobbies can bring joy even amidst our busy lives.
