EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Fowler Ploughing Engine number 2267, registered as AL 8344, in its prime at Peterborough on the 26th of August, 1973. The Fowler Ploughing Engine, a beloved relic of the steam transport era, is seen here in its element, emitting thick plumes of steam as it goes about its agricultural duties. The Fowler Ploughing Engine, a testament to engineering prowess from the 1970s, was designed specifically for heavy-duty ploughing tasks. Its robust and distinctive appearance, with its large wheels, high chimney, and intricate machinery, is a sight that continues to captivate enthusiasts and history buffs alike. The photograph, taken during the 1970s, offers a glimpse into a bygone era when steam power ruled the transportation landscape. The era, often referred to as the '70s or the 'Seventies,' was a time when steam engines were still in use, albeit gradually being phased out by more modern technologies. The Fowler Ploughing Engine number 2267, with its unique identity and character, stands out as a symbol of the past, reminding us of the ingenuity and determination of those who harnessed steam power to transform the agricultural landscape. This photograph, from The William Kerry Collection, is a treasure trove of transport history, offering a glimpse into a time when steam engines were an integral part of our daily lives.
