Beamish Museum's 40th Anniversary
After normal closing time this evening Beamish Open Air Museum played host to several hundred invited guests plus live television on both BBC & ITV local news to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the opening day.
I was there as a gatecrasher, being the driver for 2 members of the invited brass band who entertained during the evening. I bumped into several T-T members and enjoyed a very pleasant evening. There were also 5 traction engines in steam as well as Furness Railway No. 20 giving rides from the railway station. The traction engines will be in steam all weekend.    Neil Corner's Winston Churchill with his Gaudin Organ       This is a new one to me. Fowler T3 Roller "Whitby Jet"  Photography was very difficult with a strong setting sun, deep shadows and 4 of the engines pointing the wrong way for pictures
