Next Saturday and Sunday. we at the Amberley Museum & Heritage Centre are holding our annual Railway Gala.

The theme this year is Bagnalls to mark the completion of the ten year overhaul of 'Peter' - WB2067/1918. Visiting locos are 'Armistice' from Bredgar & Wormshill, 'Kidbrooke' from Yaxham (not 100% on this one - but we are hoping they will make it) and to make up the numbers 'P C Allen' from Leighton Buzzard (which is, yes I know, an Orenstein & Koppel!). All three of our resident Bagnalls, 'Polar Bear', 'Peter' and 'Wendy' along with Quarry Hunslet 'Cloister', will be in steam. (That makes 6, maybe 7, steam locos).

Museum opens 1000hrs both days.

We also have our Model Railway exhibitoin - a list of the layouts is on the website - and the 7¼" miniature line as well.
Look me up if you came down - always good to put faces to names.

["Wendy and "Cloister" are owned by the Hampshire Narrow Gauge Railway Trust and are on loan to the Museum.]

Here's a picture of three of the Bagnall's from yesterday:
