Default Cumbria Steam Gathering - 28th - 29th July & Levens Hall engines

The Levens Hall engines WILL be at the Cumbria event this year, we have the crew available and the engines will be driven on the road to the event on the Thursday afternoon before the event so that Bertha can be part of the SAC driving day too.

Last Sunday we posed the engines in front of the Hall for photographs for the programme and they looked superb on the beautiful sunny day we had, even though the pictures are only from my phone.

I am really enjoying my time with the Levens Hall collection this year getting some regular engine time, particularly the tricky manouvers getting Bertha in and out of her shed. An interesting fact for me about Bertha is that she did haul a set of Steam Yachts in her working life so not only am I privilaged to be able to drive a set of Steam Yachts but I am also driving an engine that worked with a set

I hope you all like the photos, it is the first time I have managed to upload any since I joined the forum
