Aveling & Porter traction engine, Acton Bridge
Taking part in the annual Leigh arms steam party. This is works No. 8401 of 1914 and named Avellana. It is a class KLD with compound cylinders, rated at 6 nominal horsepower and weighs 10 tons. I was really pleased with this photographic location at one end of the swing bridge.
