Default Not something you see every day....

I was at work this afternoon when we spotted a huge amount of smoke coming towards us. This was the cause. He was shifting along, too - must've been doing at least 15-20mph . Luckily I always keep my camera to hand.

WTF LOL! Is just an original person wanting an original ride, or there is some sort of meeting for such... things?

WOW! That's an extremely funny, but also extremely rare sight. I'm wondering if the guy driving it uses it as every day car

Haha! I guess they must be road legal then. I'd love to take one along one of Londons arterial routes at rush hour, but then I'm just a cnut.

Considering ho wpopular retoring and preserving steam vehicles is - while a rare sight on the road, they are thankfully not that hard to come across..

It looks like a dragster. Big wheels in the back and a lot of smoke

What is it doing on the road ???
