Does the Traction Engines still get a payment for running there engines at shows?

Ive always thought that a tad bit unfair, as a stationary engine is just as much a part of our heritage as a traction engine.

Yes Paul they do and get free coal. I totally agree it's a hobby and we all have to pay to first buy the engine then transport it about.
