Is there any way of finding out beforehand what exhibits will be attending? I am particularly interested in Foden steam and diesel. We are attending for the first time this year so imagine we will be seeing things we have not seen before. If I know ahead of time, I can check if I have any photo's etc.in my archive and get copies for the owners or gather anything of interest ready for taking down and handing over or showing rather than a follow up exercise. (All F.O.C. of course)

I think it's hard work for the exhibitors to find out if they're going so far David.

Your best bet is trying the information line David - 01453 890891
The diesel side will be pretty straight forward but as been hinted at, the circumstances around the steam section will make getting information about what is attending a bit more difficult. i believe entry forms are still being returned so the final list of attendees will probably not be available until just before the show.
We'll be there though so come and seek us out - No Fodens I'm afraid but we have a large supply of tea and biscuits, a sense of humour and the occasional Burrell.

The People's Front of Judea had a hastily arranged meeting today to decide if they where attending !.

Unfortunately Pedler won't be there this year, nothing to do with the politics, just unable to get transport for the engine and crew to commit to three days. Shame because we always enjoy Sth Cerney; still, room for one more in the village on Saturday evening!!

No politics involved.

The organisers feel they know more about what is needed to safely provide for over 130 full size engines than I do (that's what was confirmed).

I disagreed, resigned and moved on.

All entry forms are still sat here awaiting collection by organisers, which hasn't happened.

I have previously publicly encouraged everyone to still attend, but I am not accountable for anything that happens prior to, during or after the event.

In answer to your question David, 5 Steam Fodens, and a number or rarely seen Timber Tractors were originally booked to attend.
