    We've got tickets for Saturday also, I'd seen the weather but didn't like to mention it - fingers crossed it stays that way! Should be a good day. :)

    First time visit for me and the kids today and wow what a place to be I was really impressed some big preserved railways would struggle to put a show on like that and it was nice that it had things for the kids to do other than trains. Fab place and look forward to a return visit very soon

    Most excellent day out as usual, steam coming at you in all directions. Wonderful carvery lunch, even managed to get a couple of unmade Concor American freight car kits for a tenner!
