I have a picture somewhere from a visit to weeting some years ago, I took it as we walked into the main field facing the large engines, all you can see are a row of front wheels and the rest of the picture was just thick dense smoke from one end of the line up to the other :(

I must admit after some rallies there with my old Aveling roller I was pleased to get home and away from the sulphur and thats from someone who loves the smell of coal smoke.

Oh, what a shame if it's not Andy's coal.

We will be going for the first time ever. Probably on the Saturday. I will be wearing my Traction-Talk tee-shirt. If you see me, please come and say HELLO! I don't bite - I just like some interesting conversation - relieves the boredom of listening to "Her indoors"!
Last time I was at a rally site in East Anglia was in 1970 at Caenby Corner. |
I will be there with my Mac. (See my avatar.)
Terry. |
Repairs permitting, 24436 will be there

Roy, I would hardly describe Caenby Corner as being in East Anglia, it is in Lincolnshire, north of Lincoln and well on the way towards the River Humber. :D When I lived in Lincolnshire I went to most of the Caenby Corner rallies and the North Hykeham rallies before them, starting with the first Lincolnshire rally at North Hykeham in 1959, I still have the programme! Malc. :cool: |
Malc, remember I am in The North East where we consider Doncaster as the centre of England. Anywhere South of there is either East Anglia, London or the Midlands. In my RAF days I frequently went to Binbrook, Nocton Hall, Digby & Manby and the RAF considered them all to be in East Anglia. I cannot argue with them.......

If you are going to weeting this year you probably seen the new passes, a strip of green plastic that is to be fastend round the wrist. And it HAS to be warn for the full 3 days! Not sure how well it will stand up to 3 days use, the manufacturers web site says they are only good for one to two days.....

I hate those poxy things.
