Thousands of steam enthusiasts flocked to a Dorset rally to see a heavy metal line-up.

The Three Okefords' rally was held at Shillingstone near Blandford.

Two of the most iconic steam engines in England, which have undergone extensive renovations, were on display.

Fippenny Queen, a 1930s road roller built by Fowler's of Thetford took pride of place while Princess Mary, a Burrell 1920s showman's engine from Wool was the centre of attention for fairground enthusiasts.

Princess Mary is owned by show manager Percy Guppy.

Mr Guppy said: "In spite of the Royal wedding and the Cup Final we had a super day on Saturday, with Sunday being a record for the show.

"We had five showman's engines on display as well as road rollers and traction engines. We are rightly proud of our local rally and although we are bursting at the seams we have no plans for expansion."
