I took my family to Hollycombe (
http://www.hollycombe.co.uk/) a couple
of weeks ago. They have a few nights a year where they run the steam
fairground late, the lights and the steam are great in the dark. I can
highly recommend it! I'm not really a steam buff, but I can certainly
appreciate the work that has gone into restoring these fantastic
machines. Going to have to go back in the daylight some time to see
all the other engines running (just hope there are enough volunteers
available to run them!).
