2009 Event[]
Edit The 2009 event suffered from the typical British Summer weather with one of the wettest weekends yet this summer.
We still managed to get some Photos of the exhibit at this event before being rained off. Due to conditions several of the steam exhibits had called off and most of the others had loaded up on the Saturday night. :(
