Another fun day at the Fancott for our volunteers and visitors, and the weather held out again! Don’t forget we’ll be open again tomorrow, Bank Holiday Monday, for more of the same. Make your way down - one of our members, Neil, will be bringing his Scamp ‘Jackie’ to take passengers out, hopefully top and tailing with Scamp ‘Sammy’, all alongside our steamie, Davanna. ☺️
This video is for one of our young visitors today. He has a very keen interest and lots of knowledge of steam engines. I promised I would post up this video of one of my favourite parts of the steam day - getting rid of the fire from Davanna!
Do you leave the boiler full or empty when in store? I use to remove the fire at the end of the day but I now just let it die down on its own gradually then remove the front and grate the next day when cold. Makes it very quick to do and there is not the sudden rush of cold air over the tubes
Progress for Pippa - she finally got started on the key!!
