Steam Power

Post by :FI:Gurberly » Thu Sep 24, 2009 7:33 am

Bedford Steam Ralley
For all things steam powered. Not a good place to be if you like your country air clean and sweet. There were 115 of these beasties belching and chugging their way around the showground.

It's held at the same place as the Shuttleworth Collection and they managed to put up the odd aircraft to keep the interest up.

Unfortunately it did mean another Sunday away from flying :(
