Further locos at Tracks to the Trenches

Late exhibit entries entries are coming in now for Tracks to the Trenches. We are delighted to announce two real celebrity machines will be making a first-time visit to Apedale. They are the Ffestiniog Railway's 40HP Simplex (once known as Mary Ann) and Moelwyn - the UK's only surviving example of one of the Baldwin tractors which were very popular with American and Canadian forces during WW1. Being FR locos, their wheel standards are alsightly incompatible with the railway at Apedale - so they MAY be static display or very limited operation - testing will decide. 
There's still just a few days to buy advance tickets. The deal is pretty good - you get to skip the queue, and get the guidebook thrown in. The guidebook is £4, and is really nice - so you get £13 worth of ticket and book for £9, and quick entry. A bargain if ever there was one. We've also still got a few Access All Areas passes left. Closing date for advance ticket sales is 1st May, so stop messing around and go to here with your credit card in hand.
