THE 2007 H.S.E.P.S STEAM ENGINE & VINTAGE VEHICLE RALLY WAS ONCE AGAIN A GREAT SUCCESS. WE ARE NOW PREPAIRING FOR THE 2008 EVENT, WHICH WILL BE HELD ON THE 31st MAY & 1st JUNE. AT BILLINGTON JUST OFF THE A505 LEIGHTON-BUZZARD BY-PASS. HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE SEE EVENTS PAGE FOR MORE INFO. |
THE HERTFORDSHIRE STEAM ENGINE PRESERVATION SOCIETY SEEKS TO ENCOURAGE THE OPERATION AND PRESERVATION OF STEAM ENGINES IN THE AREA, AND IS OPEN TO ALL ENTHUSIASTS WHETHER OWNER, DRIVER OR THOSE JUST INTERESTED IN THE HISTORY OF OUR GREAT STEAM HERITAGE.
ALTHOUGH PRIMARILY AIMED AT STEAM ROAD ENGINES, SOCIETY MEMBERS HAVE A RANGE OF INTERESTS THAT INCLUDE MANY OTHER ITEMS OF HISTORIC TRANSPORT OR AGRICULTURAL INTEREST. e.g- VINTAGE TRACTORS, COMMERCIAL VEHICLES, CARS, FIRE ENGINES, MOTORCYCLES AND STATIONARY ENGINES.
STEAM TRACTION ENGINES AND ROAD ROLLERS WERE PART OF OUR GLORIOUS INDUSTRIAL HERITAGE, BUT THE LAST ENGINES WERE BUILT OVER 50 YEARS AGO, AND THOSE THAT HAVE SURVIVED DO SO AS THE RESULT OF THE EFFORTS MADE BY INDIVIDUAL ENTHUSIASTS IN BOTH RESTORING AND PRESENTING THEIR PRIDE AND GLORY AT EVENTS ORGANIZED SUCH AS OURS.
AS A REGISTERED CHARITY, OUR SOCIETY HAS EXISTED FOR OVER 30 YEARS WITH THE OBJECTIVE TO ENCOURAGE STEAM PRESERVATION IN AN INCREASINGLY TECHNOLOGICAL WORLD. OUR SOCIETY IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE NATIONAL TRACTION ENGINE TRUST, AND THE FEDERATION OF BRITISH HISTORIC VEHICLE CLUBS. IF YOU WISH TO VISIT ANY OF THEIR WEB-SITES MOVE YOUR CURSER TO THE SIDE FRAME ON THE LEFT OF THIS PAGE AND CLICK ON LINKS, THEN THE LINKS PAGE WILL APPEAR WITH A LIST OF EXTERNAL SITES FOR YOU TO VISIT.
HAVING ORGANIZED STEAM EVENTS FOR OVER 30 YEARS, THE HERTFORDSHIRE STEAM ENGINE PRESERVATION SOCIETY, ARE PROUD TO PRESENT THIS WEB-SITE, WITH FACTS ABOUT THE CLUB, AND INFORMATIVE INFORMATION AND LINKS TO OTHER SITES. TO HOPEFULLY HELP YOU GAIN ALL THE INFORMATION ABOUT STEAM IN AND AROUND THE U.K.
IT`S NOW OVER 30 YEARS SINCE THE END OF STEAM ON OUR RAILWAY`S, AND OVER 50 YEARS SINCE STEAM ENGINES WERE TO BE REGULARLY SEEN ON OUR ROADS. AS WE ARE NOW AT THE START OF A NEW MILLENIUM WE HOPE YOU WILL ENJOY OUR EFFORTS TO BRING SOME OF OUR TRANSPORT HISTORY TO LIFE ONCE MORE.
