Well the Traction Engine weekend has been and gone and was well attended with 10 engines there and 3 miniatures, plus a vintage bus and some classic cars and Land Rovers. Everyone had a fun time and much beer was consumed (when did 2.30am get invented?). There were some sore heads on Sunday morning but all were in good spirits and the public came aplenty so hopefully everyone was happy. This event is one of the best of the year with a lovely relaxed atmosphere and a very low cost to the railway to put on thanks to the good will of all the people who brought exhibits. I didn't realise though that the only reason to have kids was to supply scale drivers for the miniature locos, but it seems that's just what Izaak was for on Sunday as the photo shows!
