Steam on Rutland Water
 
An early shout for a new event in 2014...

'Steam on Rutland Water' taking place on June 28/29th at the Rutland Water Visitors Centre, Sykes Lane, Whitwell Road, Empingham LE15 8PX

Early days yet but a traditional rally line up is planned, set out amongst the trees overlooking Rutland Water. Beer tent and evening entertainment. Plenty of hard standing if the weather turns and room to run around.

Hopefully most of the local engines will be present along with, fingers crossed, a few from further afield, and some stuff 'on the belt'

Anyone who is interested in bringing something along be it steam or otherwise, contact Tom Boon on 07710 823763.

The organisers tell me Friday night is an 'exhibitors party' with John Barry, 50s/60s rock and roll plus jokes. On Saturday night singer Dave Logan is performing who literally does a bit of everything.

Nice pub the Hornblower!

Any news on the other Rutland event I asked you about as it seems to be one of the best kept secrets of the year.

Cheers Kev.

Hi Charlotte 23

I can't seem to reply to your private message as you don't seem to have that bit enabled.

Do you mean Steam on Rutland Water ? If so i'm away at another that weekend but if you mean the Transport Festival at Nth Luffenham, i'm trying to enter a 1933 Austin 7 Box saloon.

Cheers
Paul
