International Steam at Large 2019
Like David Bosworth we journeyed north to Beamish, a long way but well worth the effort.
By Saturday, 4 extra road engines had appeared. http://www.internationalsteam.co.uk/...kindexbm19.htm |

Trevithick Day 2019
We had a long weekend in Cornwall. The weather wasn't wonderful but the least bad day was the Saturday, fortunately.
http://www.internationalsteam.co.uk/...rollers396.htm Having got home this afternoon, the report has been thrown together in a bit of a rush... |

Abbey Hill May 4th
We were in Yeovil on Saturday:
http://www.internationalsteam.co.uk/...kindexah19.htm 35 engines and only 6 were here 5 years ago... Unfortunately it's a pretty congested show ground which restricts movement for the most part. Enjoy. |

Castle Howard and Carrington 2019
We attended these rallies over the Spring Bank Holiday weekend. The reports can be accessed through my 2019 index page:

St. Albans Steam and Country Show 2019
We attended on Saturday, there were 30 full sized road steam engines present and it was generally warm and sunny.
What not to enjoy including the Ukulele band playing in the beer tent with a walk in bass player when someone (and maybe an engine or two) got stuck in an enormous jam on the M1. (So it's not impossible that Sunday may have seen an extra engine or two as there were three 'no shows' in the excellent complementary programme. Linked as usual from the 2019 index page: http://www.internationalsteam.co.uk/.../ukindex19.htm |

Wiltshire and Stoke Row Rallies 2019
On Sunday we visited the Wiltshire Rally which was a bit of a disaster.
Consequently we also visited the Stoke Row Rally too. http://www.internationalsteam.co.uk/.../ukindex19.htm |

Thanks.
It's got a lot going for it with a brilliant setting and it's within easy reach of anyone living along the coastal strip. Coming from where we live, it's bound to be an occasional pleasure. |

Marcle Rally 2019
Frankly, this was 'disappointing' with steam engine numbers half what they were a few years back.
The rally desperately needs a 'reboot': http://www.internationalsteam.co.uk/...rollers417.htm |

Welland 2019
My report (mainly Thursday and Friday) is now available via the index page for 2019:
http://www.internationalsteam.co.uk/.../ukindex19.htm After all the hard work, the organisers were most unlucky, we live some 20 miles west and we had no rain all weekend, the rally site was right on the western boundary of the rain that caused big problems further north. Please advise errors and omissions, I'm rather tired after a one day visit to Boconnoc on the Sunday. Conditions could not have been more different, suffice to say it was well worth the effort. |
