Absolutely fantastic.

I would love to go again (I've only been once) - a forum stand sounds like a great idea!! Put me down for manning it at least one day!!

Maybe an additional event to add to the Southern Meet Ups?!

EDIT: Just submitted an exhibitors enquiry form, and if GDSF are interested we will be sent an application form to exhibit

my predecessor on my black five used to drive Talos when he was an MVR driver. I saw the GWR Bridget "Cygnus" and the black Conway "Charlotte" at the Bishop's Lydeard steam fair!

kudos to 10 year old Alex Webb for a good little steam plant.

I like the triple!
