Description

The Preston Round Table steam event to raise money for underpriviliged children, held at Fulwood Barracks in Preston on the 11th and 12th September 1971. Vintage cars, traction and steam rollers drive around the parade ground. A musical steam organ plays to enraptured children who then take rides on a miniature steam railway. Morris dancers, pipers and the King's Division marching band provide further entertainment for the crowds of spectators.
