You must be very tierd. Both engines looked good as you passed through Coombe Bissett, we even got a wave from the top of the hill!

[QUOTE=steaming my way;173044]Went past yesterday, site is transforming to a showground very quickly! Spoke to some friends who are staff members, and there are a few engines on site already. Including what I think is TT' member 'Aveling Porter' traction engine!?! Anyway a few photos, less than a week and ill be on site for the week! Cant wait, a few photos for now!

The site looks so much smaller with very little on it. Cant believe how much stuff they cram in!!
An the play pen looks nothing more than a pimple, is it less steep than last year? LOL

I'm so excited.
Good luck to everyone driving engines down there, hope you have a good journey

Wizz
xx
