I have just counted up the number of full size engines at barleylands to be 48 in total (the programme lists boats and half size engines amongst them to boost numbers).
Depsite the show growing in size (in ways of the other attractions) it apprears the steam section is rapidly shrinking as it was not too long ago they boosted 100 engines.

It seems that the show is now the Essex Country show rather than a steam rally and the steam section has now taken a back seat.

well done to the \goblands crew in getting the old Fowler / Burrell Plougher out too...the Wednesday night crew have done all of the boiler work themselves, the engine looked great!
