Bakewell Showground Spectacular - May 2-3
Does anyone know if there will be any full size steam exhibits at this event?
The Old Glory events guide states 25 but on looking at the web site for the showground I can only see a listing for minatures . Dave |

I think I may go to Llandudno , not been before and I understand there is a town parade of steam and vintage vehicles .
Shame about Bakewell though , never been there either . Dave |
I've just been talking to a friend who is a miniature steam steward at various rally's and he has heard that movement of steam vehicles will will in the near future only be allowed at N.T.E.T approved rally's !!! Can anyone confirm if this is true or not !. If true it is certainly bad news for us steam engine owners :(
Perhaps it's a new "Requirement" of the rally organiser's Insurer's !. I'm now wondering....is it time to sell my beloved engine !. *think Cheers Suzukiman ;) Quote: All good things in life come to an end sometime. |
This is really bad news, does anyone know if there have been any actual incedents involving engines, or is it just in case?

Health and safety strikes again, sounds like an arse covering exercise.

Just what is the issue with Health & Safety !!! I thought Steam Events had their own "Safety Officers" to see that all and everything complies with the Health & Safety issues of the organised rallies !. Cheers Suzukiman ;) |
