EATES AGM
 

The East Anglian Traction Engine Society held its 2018 AGM at The Grange Mechanical Music Museum near Diss and provided a welcome breath of steam. Three engines were in attendance, two well known locally plus a newcomer to the area.

They made a fine line up.

Thanks to all the engine owners and EATES for the entertainment - and to the 'clerk of the weather' for the sunshine.
