Traction engine racing Tinkers Park Steam Rally

Here we see some of the activity at the 2013 show including the judge the width competition.Traction engines and steam rollers compete by racing up the arena and stopping between two posts that the crew have judged the width of, this is done as fast as possible testing the engines and skill of the crew.
