Castle Fraser 18th / 19th

[rathopete]

Had a great weekend at Castle Fraser, my first time at this rally just outside Aberdeen. A very well attended weekend with 40 full size steamers, steam gallopers, 10 or so miniatures and a decent selection of the usual rally fair. A very wet Saturday gave way to a glorious sunny and warm, almost hot, Sunday which really helped lift the spirits.

And a few of the very interesting Mann that was there

Was hoping to go on the Sunday as I was at a car run 66 miles away but it wasn't to be!

Anyone got a list of engines that were there?

The Foster Annie and the Fowler Wee McGregor were not there. Neither was Sir John Fowler, the Cooks had Master there in its place.
Great weekend, shame about the weather on the Saturday.
