New Steam Rally in Cornwall.

Cornish engine owners and steam enthusiasts will already be aware of this, but I know that there will be others visiting the South West who will be pleased to have the opportunity of a very early steam fix.

The first St. Dennis Steam and Vintage Rally will take place over the Easter weekend, April 4th and 5th. The venue is St. Dennis, in the heart of 'clay country' about 2 miles off the A30 close to the turn-off for Newquay. Sat Nav PL26 8DT.

The rally will feature full-size and minitature steam, tractors, vintage cars and motorcycles and stationary engines. Entry forms can be obtained from Ian Lobb on 01726 822275 or 07959 6578453. Alternatively visit 'St. Dennis Steam and Vintage Rally' on Facebook.

The rally will be opened by Martin Oliver, who will be on-site all weekend doing some public talks and Q and A sessions.

At a time when we hear of the demise of several established rallys, I hope that the steam community will support this new event.

Just so happens - Devster, Essex and myself will be in that neck of the woods so a visit on Sunday is most likely.

Anyone fancy a pint?

You should find a couple of road engines at the BODMIN RAILWAY if you call in.

They come every other year, Dormans yachts alternate with the Saunders set.

I will be going to Bocconoc while on holiday if your around, had even booked Blackbeard in as a long distance entry but now he has gone I will just have to be a visitor this year.
