Swift Fox · Swift Fox's Junction26 2012 Report

Had a great time in Eastwood today, there were more exhibitors this time around and it seemed busier with the public as well, fingers crossed we raised a bit more for the kids. It was nice to meet everyone again and i'd like to say a special thanks to Sandy for the cheese & coins and also to Pete and the organisers for putting on another great show this year. Thumbs up!

Swift Fox Senior won the TE1a in the raffle which was a nice surprise and makes it his first toy steam engine, who knows where it could lead to!
