Come on Steve, the Cornish no longer eat tourists from Devon as they say that they are not good for their health!! I shall be going on one of the two dates as I wish to see what it is like to have a Easter event down here.

Besides the nine full size engines which are booked in (a good number for a new rally!) are there any miniatures going to be present?

Sorry Tom, I can't answer that. I only know about the full-size engines after I bumped into Ian Lobb a couple of weeks ago.
You could always try ringing him; his number is in my original post.

I would of booked my miniture in but I had no transport, and now I think it's abit late to book it in.

Info for anyone comming to see the steam then beware, only one roller has got onto the site ! After overnight rain last night and the rain today, parts of the site are like a ploughed field ! The problems for us engine owners is the entrance, which at this moment we have NO chance of getting through, and even if we get in, where to go ? as the engines spaces are the other end of the field !!!
Going to review tomorrow morning before lighting up !

There is a message on their Facebook page posted yesterday saying the event has NOT been cancelled, but nothing after this. I'm assuming they are still going ahead in some form - if anyone knows anymore please post here.

David, event is still going ahead but with little steam present, we are taking the Maid out for a run on the road tomorrow as we have no chance of getting in the field.
