Mark.
Natel was talking to Some one Saturday evening when getting drinking water who said he was a committee member, who had a less than positive out look regarding the steam section, which Natel apparently found upsetting. Our steward for the steam section (Colin Cracknel) looks after us well and has always been polite and friendly towards us.

I know there was a few issues this year, but I love Long Melford Rally, and have been going since 2007 (firstly with Natel and then with my own model Burrell), and always well looked after.

I think the main issue regarding model steam driving around, was the prevention of them driving around the stalls, which is standard practice at most shows. They still had 3 avenues to drive around and there was a large open space at the top of the showground.

Many thanks to the organizers of Long Melford, hope to see you again next year.
