It is the ninth time the event has been held t the museum and entries have come from all across the north and southwards from Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire, Cheshire, Lancashire and Wiltshire.

"We are indeed very appreciative of the efforts made to bring these machines such considerable distances," said a spokesman.
