Great day out at ex RAF Bentwaters north east of Ipswich organised by Paul Dunningham of AngleMog with ten Mogs counted. Although the site covers 1000 acres and built by the RAF in 1944 it was later used by the USAF during the cold war. On this occasion we were just visiting the Power of the Past museum which encompases tractors, farm machinery, cars and trucks, steam engines interspersed by many dressed manequins. First building housed solely lend lease tractors from the USA covering both world wars. Most seemed to be in running condition as demonstrated by Bill the owner.




Next up farm machinery. This mural has the horse placed to give an interesting 3D effect with the horses head seemingly following you.



Then more tractors and pre war cars.





Plowing via cable from steam and early IC engines of massive proportions.




Just the thing to keep the neighbours under control



Bill finalised the visit leading us in Mogs on a tour of the park which being so large took a while as we passed cold war blast proof hangers. A thoroughly enjoyable day although less so on the journey home with biblical rain at times

Although I had been before the collection is so vast and varied this second visit was most welcome. Thanks to Paul and Bill.
