Following on from the success of our open day last year, we have decided to put on a much more elaborate event for this year. The date chosen will be October 10th, which happens to be a Saturday. Visitors will be able to walk around our works and see the many projects we are working on. Outside we will have an operational 2 foot gauge section of line and motive power will consist of several Lister locos, the star attraction will be a guest steam loco from Graham Lee’s Hunslet Engine Company: we are hoping to have "Statfold" or " Jack Lane ". Dan Nemeth’s newly constructed 4wPM powered by a two cylinder Lister engine is also expected to be in operation.

Our Aveling and Porter steam roller will be in steam and along with one or two visiting traction engines. Vintage cars, motor cycles, tractors, stationary engines and a fully restored "Bristol L" bus will also attend. If you would like to bring some thing of interest to our event we will be happy to hear from you.

A sale of vintage equipment including railwayana will take place on site. Full indoor catering and refreshments will be available. Many other items of interest too numerous to mention will also be on display. Should the weather be poor some displays may be moved under cover. We look forward to any enquiries you may have, please ask for Joe, Dan for details.
