Pickering Steam Rally

[Pandora's Firebox]

Last time I visited this event was in '04 and couldn't believe how much the site has changed since then. All for the better in my opinion, we had a fantastic day on Saturday. The sun shone, ground was very wet and muddy in a few places, but the hard roads made engine movement and us walking around possible with ease. Organs were spread around the site enough to not cause a racket. Good to see some 'more travelled' engines than I have been used to at the recent smaller local rallies.

I will try to post some pics tonight.

It was also nice to meet Sheila Dibnah - what a lovely, down to earth lady she is.
