Default International Steam at Large 2017

Weather permitting, we continue to visit steam rallies in 2017, some familiar, some unfamiliar.
This weekend, for example, we were in Leicester on Saturday.

Default Heddington and Stockley Steam Rally and Country Fair 2017

This is a delightful small event which doesn't seem to have a high profile...

Default Birdingbury Steam and Country Show

On our way home from Rempstone and Papplewick we stopped off at the final Birdingbury Steam and Country Show just off the Fosse Way. It's always been a small village event and with the sad passing of the prime move Bob Munro, it seems the rest of the team felt his boots were too big to fill.

Rempstone will take a lot longer to edit up, it was a great show and blessed with much better weather than 2016.

Default Weeting Rally 2017

Marvellous event, shame about the weather which was almost totally overcast save for late Friday afternoon and early Sunday before the rally was officially open. The pictures do not reflect how grim was the light:

Reminder, all the reports are linked from here:

Please tell me about any mistakes.

Default Somerset Steam and Country Show 2017

Unfortunately, the show didn't get the weather to reward the effort made to improve the show compared to when we last went in 2015.

Not many shows can manage 7 ploughing engines and 3 pairs at work. Plus two direct ploughing engines although these were not active on the Sunday.
