These are pictures from the 2005 Echuca Steam Horse Vintage Rally. This 
is one of my favourite rallies in the year and I try and get there every 
time. It is held on the Queens Birthday weekend in June each year in 
Echuca Victoria. The city is a famous river port with a rich steam 
history much of which comes out to play at this show. This year there 
was an excellent steam turnout. The weather started out poor, but fined 
up to a really nice couple of days. I was there on the Saturday. After a 
seven hour drive (why to people drive at 40 in 100 zones?) from Emerald 
to Echuca which should have taken 3 hours I was ready for the show... 
what was left of it. It was absolutely worth it, especially catching up 
with the crew of Moses again after so long.
