I know it's a bit late but I attended this event and I was the 14 year old driving the black 4" foster traction engine. I saved this video as your channel is one of the only ones I have found that show small local shows ind I thought that was quite cool. Keep up the great content
Hi Zack what a lovely engine you drive it definitely caught my attention being a Foster. You see too many burrells and it's always nice to see something different. You are definitely one luck lad looks like you had a good weekend. I'm glad you enjoyed the video I like doing the smaller shows people are more friendly and you get a good variety of everything. bigger channels don't really cover the event as a whole or focus on a bigger event like dorset which is covered by hundreds of people. I had not been to the rural life museum in years but it was a good event which I will be going back to this year. Another good weekend is Amberley Miniature steam weekend you have probably heard of it. It's good for both the public and exhibitors there is just something different with the miniatures driving around on the roads a brilliant atmosphere. Its probably one of the best shows for miniatures in the south and I would probably say the UK personally. Sadly this is on the same weekend as the rural life event but I will probably end up doing a day at each. Hope to see you around when the shows start up keep up the good work on the engine. Thanks for your appreciation, Sam
I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Sadly I'm not sure if the toy and model steam even will be on again as it has not been on since 2019 probably due to covid. At the start of the year when I was looking for shows to go to there was nothing listed on their events page for a model steam up. Hopefully the museum starts it up again for next year as I have not been to it since the early 2000s. It would be great to see your o gauge layout there if it's on in the future.

Thanks for the video.
I used to attend the Museum when they had the toy and model steam event day. Will this be run again?
