Made by Dennis Leather, a member of Vixen Films and the Stocksbridge Cine Club, this is a film of steam and motor rally at Wilsic Hall, Wadworth, near Doncaster in 1963. A Vixen Film Production Title - The Days of Steam – Rally at Wilsic Hall Wadworth, near Doncaster Cameramen: Harry Haigh, Kenneth Hobson, Dennis Leather Sound effects recording K Hobson Sound Recordist: Harry Haigh Commentary written and narrated by James Clark Editor: Harry Haigh The film begins with visitors walking around the vintage cars on display in a field.  One of the marquees is for Hull Brewery.  A crowd of children take a close look at one of the cars, and there is a close up of a steam piston in action.  The traction engines are in a line, all fired up.  They make their way out to the field.  There is a large fairground packed with people.  There is a carousel and a Wurlitzer and a large swinging boat. The traction engines do a circle of the field watched by a crowd on a blustery day.  Many of the traction engines are shown close up.  A woman drives a tiny engine pulling herself and a small boy, making running repairs as she does so.  She is followed by a vintage motorcycle and vintage cars.  The traction engines go through a manoeuvring course. A small boy eats an ice cream. There are also some vintage trucks.  They all line up again having completed their circuits and the film comes to an end.
