500 @ 50…Breaking Guinness World Records at The Great Dorset Steam Fair

Yates Engineering took a long (but worthwhile!) trip down to the sunny climate of Dorset last week to visit and participate in the 50th Great Dorset Steam Fair. It has been described as the ‘Biggest steam event
on earth’ and this certainly was reflected in that the highlight of the week being exhibitors breaking the Guinness world record for having over 500 steam driven machines on display.

Our culinary skills came out flourishing as a succulent pork joint was cooked in the smoke box and provided a hearty feast to feed our family and friends. We would like to say thank you to those who made the special journey down to visit us and help us with this adventure, a great time was had by all at this wonderful event.
