2010 event[]
The 2010 event could be the last "Masham Steam Engine and Fair Organ Rally" as the organisers have been told that the 2010 event is to be the last time that the current site can be used. So the search is on for a new site for 2011, for this historic rally which has been held for over 40 years on the "Low Burton" Field site.[1]
Summary[]
The 2010 event was blessed with good weather over the weekend with just a few light showers, It was a little blustery at times. A Good event was possible this year with a number of the engines going on the road run up into the town on the Saturday night with a good number of passengers in trailers. A Classic bus service was also laid on up to the town

2009 event[]
Summary[]
The 2009 event was disrupted by heavy rain leading up to the event leaving ground conditions poor, which lead to some engines been cancelling and a lower than expected turn out in some other classes. But the weather brightened up over the weekend with a few showers, so a decent event was possible with a number of the engines being displayed in the Station yard opposite the site on hard standing.
