My kind and sincere thanks to all exhibitors and visitors who attending our brand new miniature steam rally at Statfold Barn. In the final event we had 72 engines with us on Saturday, plus the big ones and the various displays and railway engines. We are very pleased with how it all went off and I personally am very pleased that our exhibitors had a lovely time - that's what its all about :) Many thanks all for your efforts in attending and on behalf of myself and the team at Statfold - we hope to see you again

To Sam and all your helpers ---- Well Done, a smashing Rally, Looking forward to Next Years event.

I attended on the Saturday with my Dad. What an amazing place. As well as thanking the organiser(s), I'd also like to thank the exhibitors who were so friendly answering any questions we had and even soliciting questions in some cases :)
In particular the crew of Pedler were great, they invited us onto the man stand and explained the intricacies of the Wallis patent valve gear.
Thanks
Andy (and my Dad John)

Wonderful weekend in a stunning as usual setting! Thanks to Sam for his second to none organisational skills, and thanks to Graham and Carol, Nick and Leanne, and all the Statfold family and volunteers for all their hard work, making us all feel very welcome, and generally putting up with us all for the weekend. Thanks to Dr Busker, the Dorset Rats with special guest star Caroline Arrowsmith for a great Saturday evening. I am sure this is fast going to be THE event of the miniature calendar !! Looking forward to many more 😃😃😃

d.bick 25th April 2016 07:03 PM

Thanks to Sam and the rest of the team who put together a fantastic rally and I congratulate all involved on the brilliant way it was organised.
What a great weekend I’ve had, you could not ask for a better venue and with the miniatures, full size traction engines, narrow gauge locos and plenty more, there was something for every one.
