Fantastic weekend, Astle Park as it used to be, sincere thanks to all the full size and miniature engine owners, sorry I couldn't thank you all personally, It's difficult when I am stuck in the commentary box, what a final steam parade on the sunday, it made the hairs on my neck stand up, thanks to Adrian Barber (and Jonathon) & Phil Moston for "pegging out " on the wednesday night in the pouring rain. On the saturday evening I spoke to Diane Carney who was just stood looking at the beautiful sunset and the engine line up and she just about summed it up for me when she said "What a wonderful turnout of engines, its like stepping back in time" it made my day....
