Default Wiston Steam Rally 2015

We had an excellent day out at Wiston on the Saturday, well worth the long journey from the Forest of Dean (it's not the distance, it's the roads in West Sussex).

It was an amazing event and still trying to figure out what all the traffic was for through Pulborough.
I was shocked at how many cars were there and then when walking through the entrance was again shocked at just how much was there.
We walked around quickly as we were some what un-prepared for the nice day it turned out to be and did not want to keep the kids out too long in it but that still took almost the entire day and that was a quick walk around.
Will be back next year. Will eventually update with the pics I got also

Its a deceiving Rally, we were their exibiting for the 1st time and was surprised how huge an area it was, it could get pretty big in years to come as there is loads of space, the passenger trailer busses were a good idea I thought, as getting round the site could prove quite tiring for some. The view of Wiston House was nice in the background if you were in the right place, and the hill definately gave the engines nice little work out from time to time

A short video clip of the working engines. I would have liked to shoot more but Sod's Law was causing all sorts of problems...
