I think this was the best Cheshire Show we have ever attended. There was around 40 full size engines plus many miniatures. I'll try to give an impression of the day but will not be able to include all the engines. If anyone is looking for a pic of their engine, PM me.

Brilliant weekend, thanks David for the cakes and photo's & thanks to all those who made it so enjoyable.

The run there was also great, think I counted 13 engines outside the Hatton Arms en route.

Thanks guys for the info, I thought it looked a bit different, great name for an engine though.

The engine previously owned by Rob Houghton before he got his dream of a Burrell if I am not mistaken.

A nice set David ,perhaps a caption for No Three could be "are you sure I'm facing the East!"
