Managed to pop in to this event this afternoon for an hour. It was good to catch up with a few TT'ers and to meet some new faces, there were a good number and variety of engines with plenty of room for them to stretch their legs. Add the standard-gauge railway running alongside the site and it's definitely a weekend worth visiting. For those less interested in engines there is a picturesque market town (with farmer's market this morning) and the battlefield site (best accessed from Shenton station, just down the line). Here are a few photos from today, a bit cloudy but hope you enjoy them anyway.

Even the rally organiser had time to play on an engine . . . nice one Sam.
