Does anyone know what is expected to be on show there in the way of steam engines both large and small?

We plan to road up from the other side of Camborne on Sunday 12th August.
Burrell roller 3986 and Fowler roller 22596 'Evening Star'.

The US Keck Gonnerman should also be attending (Maybe the first US engine to attend a WESES rally?)

Thumbs up

For all those potential visitors to the show......


2 for 1 adult vouchers for Friday of the show in today and tomorrow's Western Morning News. And with all children under 11 getting in free on the Friday too, its a great value day out for all the family.

We're starting the shift on Sunday carrying a number of exhibits from the shed and a couple others too, Fowler 15463, sentinel 6979, Garrett 30959, Wallis 7962, the Ransomes of Daves and Marshall of Julian's. 3 miniatures, a number of commercials, tractors and the fairground organ. Though the less said about the later the better ;-) we took the people carriers down a few weeks ago for the engine rides!
