Innishannon Steam Rally - June Bankholiday 2011

We attended the Innishannon Steam rally which is held annually on the June bankholiday weekend in Innishannon, Cork. The show is a mass gathering of steam engines, cars, trucks, bikes, tractors, machinery and static displays. It also boasts a wide array of stalls selling all oddities of spares for classic tractors, cars & trucks. Below is a small sample of what was on display over the weekend.

We arrived in Cork on the morning of Saturday June 5th, in preparation to display our Saab 900i Saloon
