The Smallwood Rally is a three day event. It never attracts much steam, this year there was a couple of big ones and a handful of minatures, (I didn't snap them all) but there is always a cracking display of Foden's trucks. This year was no exception with a few newcomers that I was able to make acquaintance with. I am always humbled by how much effort the restorers put into preserving these vintage machines.

A great day out not 6 miles from where I live.

Smallwood Vintage Rally Ltd was a new rally this year under a new committee, many new to stewarding, as the old rally disbanded their committee & finished after last year.
We would like to thank all who those who put in the effort to bring their engines & vehicles, and to the public who attended. We hope you all had a good weekend despite the rain on Monday.
