Default 1000 Engine at Astle Park

I am trying to persuade my wife that this rally is worth a visit. She doesn't mind traction engines, wagons and trucks but she says she's not going spend all day looking at 1000 stationary engines.

Does anyone know what else is likely to be exhibited apart from the static engines?

David... Tell your wife from me that she will not be disappointed with the 1000 engine rally there is some of everything there and loads and loads of stalls and tell her not to forget her handbag and purse.

Cheers

You should go to both, they are both good rallies with something for all the family. Just a pity they are on the same weekend. We are going to 1000 engine rally which is local to us and there is always such a good atmosphere & a brilliant selection of exhibits.
