I was thinking of going this year and was wondering just what is on show other than tractors ?
The Old Glory events site notes that there are Steam exhibits as well as Commercials , can anyone comfirm this.

Thanks
Dave

Yes... that's correct I was looking at their web site the other night and it also say's that Exhibitor bookings are now closed due to shortage of space !.

I just thought there might be some other interesting items to see and was wondering if anyone on TT had been to any previous years .
A good number of commercials would be nice

It seem's to get better every year, so you never know what might turn up.
