Monthly Steam Up

Steam up Sundays are on every 3rd Sunday each month at the track. Members are encouraged to come along and run their loco or traction engine, or just come along for a social meet up and natter. The cafe will be open selling drinks, cakes and snacks, and usually bacon rolls are served until lunchtime.
