WESES Cornish Steam Fair

[Steam Scenes]

WESES has probably suffered more with the rising cost of diesel than any other event. If you look at the list of engines that attended in 2005, their last really big year, a good percentage of those engines were from outside Cornwall, and since 2005 diesel has almost doubled in cost. I know there have been a lot of other factors at play, not least the loss of Alan Thomas.

The old site was a great site when the sun shone, a proper old fashioned steam rally site, but when it rained it was not good, as in 2004.
