As Ron says, a wonderful day on Saturday, and even better on Sunday as it was a bit cooler.

A few clips of video here of Crimson Lady, Winifred, the engines herded in the ring and Dave Philpott on NM1161.

Many thanks to all organisers and exhibitors for a great weekend.

I hope to see some of you again at Hollowell, Redbourn and Old Warden.

Seeing "Crimson Lady "back in steam after extensive boiler and seeing her out on the road on her way home from the show made it for me.

Excellent show, just how rallies should be. Well done to the HSEPS.

(also well done to Steamboy who drove his David Brown Cropmaster in excess of 100 miles round trip to attend the show)
