Telford O gauge and Great Dorset Steam Fair

Sort of started this one as a live blog last week while at he very Great Dorset Steam Fair but my dodgy phone scuppered my plans. More of this in a bit as must tell you that the layout is at the O Gauge Guild Telford show this weekend for what is it's last scheduled appereance. I am not saying it will be the last as I am sure some more will crop up but have had to scale back opperations quite substantially due to life just getting a bit too hectic.

 

Anyway, back to last weekend and I can really recomend the Great Dorset Steam Fair - such a variety of stuff with loads of stuff working all the time pulling a variety of loads including a real Black 5 - at least I think it was as standard gauge is not my thing!

Not only were there imaculate engines but quite a number in barn find or unrestored condition which was really facinating. The First World War display was amazing and will warrent a post of it's own at some stage.

 

I would have no hesitation to recomend it and will most certainly be back next year although may bea bit too soon for wife and child!5DV_5530.JPG.2a3bf3adbf2fa4278bfc99ab1fae9066.JPG5DV_5644.JPG.0ea4e2f56ef564668771cfdc763b5e7a.JPG5DV_5678.JPG.5c40b559440d021a8a7fb79b4e80e7c6.JPG5DV_5556.JPG.0058ff91614365b4ffecda4c046b3f43.JPG5DV_5559.JPG.28308e8e65dbc119128367e6ef88635f.JPG5DV_5569.JPG.0b7122b8d1c33e903edb608f928ccacb.JPG5DV_5633.JPG.16d654d7672e3f4cb73fb761e078f812.JPG5DV_5742.JPG.efd79e400b87f1cbc92f3d9d0bbfc56f.JPG
