Shame it's on at the same time as Dorset!

True Joe, but up our way is a LONG way from Dorset, and not everyone has the time, money or dare I say it, inclination to go to GDSF. I've not been able to go to Dorset since 2000, I 'm breaking that this year because of the Macs but I will be back to support Paul and the Beamish tem. It was to have been 3315's debut but the lack of a tender and the Mac excursion mean that this will have to eait.

I hope it does well, some 20+ engines including at least 2 Aveling locos, plus the Viewings' chain engine remains. As for the Mann, let's see...
