The Bressingham Steam Museum weekend event

28/7/2018

 
The last weekend of July and 240FLM had made the journey across country from Warwickshire  to the Bressingham Steam Museum near Diss in Norfolk for their annual " Steam rally" . 
A fabulous weekend of steam, vintage vehicles, including a range of fire appliances, and other means of transport were on display and several live action displays were put on, some of which included the participation of the Norfolk fire cadets.
​Camping was available on site and our crew of Colin Farrington, suitably supported by Steve Houston,took advantage of this option.
​During one of these wet displays, 240 did spring a couple of leaks but these can be fairly easily rectified, and, given the amount of miles she has covered, and the amount of pumping undertaken recently, the appliance held up remarkably well. The appliance was eventually returned down to Romford on Monday and a review of the journeys, displays and other vehicle activities has produced a "To Do" list which is not to painful to read!!.
