The 2012 Bedfordshire Steam & Country Fayre, at Old Warden Park on 14th, 15th & 16th September 2012 will feature a display of Steam Wagons & Waggons of as many builders as possible. Given the rise in rare wagon restorations in the past few years, there are many more on the rally fields that weren't thought possible 10+ years ago.
We would be interested to hear from wagon/waggon owners that would be interested in taking part, and also from any owners with wagon/waggon trailer/drags from the steam builders.
Please contact by email to exhibits@bseps.org.uk
