Forncett Steam Museum, Model Engineers’ Day

[Bill StarlingParticipant @billstarling10428]

Everyone within reach of south Norfolk on 4^th October is invited to the 23^rd annual Model Engineers' Day at the Forncett Steam Museum. We always have an excellent range of models, many of them in operation. A number of them have been described in the press, including David Owen's Tidman organ engine, currently featuring in ME.

By request, we're planning a run for miniature road steam this year. (Sorry, no suitable pub nearby. We're going to the Norfolk Tank Museum instead.)

If you'd like to exhibit finished models or work in progress, we'd be delighted to see you. For full details and an entry form, just send me a PM with your e-mail address.

Bill.

Thanks very much to David Suffolk, Roderick Jenkins and Andrew Johnston for mentioning Model Engineers' Day at Forncett on 4th October. (See under 'Model Engineer Exhibition 2015'.)

We've already had some excellent entries – as well as David's and Andrew's – ranging from a working atmospheric engine via 'trains and boats and planes' to Ramon Wilson's beautiful I.C. engines. This is in addition to nine miniature road steam vehicles, at the last count – with more promised in all categories. We can still fit in a few more if you'd like to join us, details on request.

Hope to see you there, Bill.

Nearly there. Only a few days to go till Model Engineers' Day at Forncett, next Sunday 4th October. See posts above for more details and

for how to find us. We're now up to 15 miniature road steam entries outside, plus pretty much a full house inside the museum. Even the forecast looks good.

Bill.
