Whilst we at South Cerney will not lay claim to be the biggest and best at putting on a show involving Road Locomotives and the Heavy Haulage loads seen elsewhere, we do take great pride in the quality of engine we invite to the event.

We are keen to get a good mix of examples of these larger steam powered vehicles and whilst we are happy to let them take on a task or two, we are equally at home with them simply trundling around the showground or sat simmering in the summer sunshine for you our visitors to admire at your leisure.

As with the other elements of the steam section we gather a diverse array of Road Locomotives from all over the UK, some of which are not often seen in this area other than with us here at the Gloucestershire Steam Extravaganza. The owners are always keen to talk to anyone who will listen to them and many a good story is spun about the various feats of strength and endurance the engines have achieved in the past during their working life or preservation days.

At certain points during the event, someone some where will often come up with an idea or a challenge and the resulting spectacle is always one to behold and usually showcases the power of various engines and the skills employed in driving them. Don't just take our word for it though, find yourself a spot, sit yourself down and marvel at the sights and sounds we can create before your very eyes.
