Ackworth July 2014

Post by RMS » Mon Jul 21, 2014 12:06 pm

Mixed weather made the Ackworth Steam and Historic Vehicle Show interesting!

A very warm weekend, though Saturday's heavy rain and thunderstorms meant no real vehicle activity - in fact, the few traction engines etc. which showed up generally just sat there steaming and smoking away all weekend with very little movement.

Still, we had a good time - a nice relaxing weekend with plenty of firepit chat etc.

The Carawagons were represented by mine, Phillip's and Patrick's, with John's 'mini-camper' and Neil's LWB camper joining us, and Gordon & Wendy 'tenting' it.
