Bolton Steam Museum - old signs and gauge
Just a few of the many smaller exhibits on the walls of the museum. I have a rather tenuous connection with the engineering heritage that they represent. The plaque at the top tells us that the consulting engineer for Trafford Power Station was C S Allott - I worked at one time for Allott & Lomax as they had then become - and the pressure gauge was made by Babcock and Wilcox, and again I worked at one time for part of the Babcock group.

Bolton steam Museum 2009
The Northern Mill Engine Society's museum getting closer to a finished state. I'm stood on top of the roof over the workshop that suports a new starage area and a very nice air compressor. Bottom right is the front of a Lancashire boiler with assorted feed pumps. The big lump in the left middle distance is the inverted vertical compound from Diamond Ropeworks, Royton. The big red vessel is on the Fern Mill firepump.
This is one of the best collections of its type anywhere and an absolute must for anybody interested in stationary steam.
