EdwardianRob's Old Warden Steam & Country Fayre photos
Superb day out at Old Warden, wonderful location and it's actually cheaper than visiting the Collection on a 'normal' day too! Highly recommend it, the steam wagons are fantastic and can't think of any steam wagons i'd like to see that weren't there, most makes I can think of with surviving wagons were represented apart from Wallis & Steevens (although only one is left)
