Held for a second year at Turvey House near Bedford, the annual Bedfordshire Steam & Country Fayre had something. The Bedford Steam Engine Preservation Society has been hosting the event since 1957, with other notable locations for the event being Woburn Abbey, Roxton Park and Old Warden Park, home of the Shuttleworth Collection. Some layout changes for this year allowed more room for the exhibits to move around, as this is certainly not a static event. The beautiful parkland site had something to see at every turn, with over 85 traction engines, 100 miniature engines, vintage and classic cars, commercial vehicles and an old-time fairground. In the tractor section, Steve White had pulled together a varied selection of makes and models from the Twenties to the Seventies.
