EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases Garrett Showmans Road Locomotive 33353, affectionately known as "The Chough," at the Redruth Steam Rally in 1968. The locomotive, manufactured by Richard Garrett & Sons in Leiston, Suffolk in 1919, is a testament to the rich history of steam engineering. Originally built as a road locomotive, this compound engine boasted four cylinders and a nominal horsepower (Nhp) of unknown size. By the time this image was captured, The Chough had undergone a significant transformation. It had been converted into a tractor, a common adaptation for these versatile machines in the post-steam era. The registration number BJ 4236 is clearly visible on the engine's side, adding to its unique character. The Redruth Steam Rally provided the perfect setting for The Chough to shine among other vintage steam engines. The event, which showcases the preservation and celebration of steam technology, attracted enthusiasts from far and wide. The Chough's presence at the rally underscores the enduring appeal of these magnificent machines, which continue to captivate generations with their power and ingenuity. This photograph, taken in 1968, offers a glimpse into the past, when steam engines were a common sight on the roads and in the fields. Today, The Chough and other surviving steam engines serve as important reminders of a bygone era and the pioneering spirit that drove their creation.
