Great Dorset Steam Fair

Is anyone going to GDSF at the end of the month, and will STW be there.

Taken the week off so planning to be there every day at the moment with Tash coming down for the weekend so she can see ex-mayor and we can finalise colours.

I'll be there, offering rides and refreshments.

Tim

We'll be there, come and see us in Row E. Don't forget to tune into steam FM, we've splashed out on a radio advert!

The Showmans Control model has got lots of new bits on it. Well worth a visit to the stand. See you next week.

Regards

Steve

I'll be there on the STW stand and as Tim's official food taster (quality control)

Sorry guys the lorry is already full & close to maximum weight especially now the Showman's control model has been fitted with the valve gear, the generator casting & now all the gears.

Dorset is our biggest & longest show so we also have to take extra flyers etc so unfortunately taking any customers kits or parts is just not possible.

Glad to hear there will be plenty to see on the stand for us to see but I hope you have left room for the order books!!!

No worries, appreciate your probably well loaded, so can you have a word with the packing dept then, as last mail I got from Dean was my goodies were heading up to packing / despatch, and really can't steam Burrell without them...

Cheers
Alex

With all these new twirly bits fitted, it would great if we could all see a few pics, especially for those of us who can't get to Dorset ?

cheers

Just to show there was some work being done....

STW Team

Glad to see you got plenty of orders at Dorset and in the weeks running up to it, just goes to show what a cracking job you are all doing and the confidence there is out there in the market.

Well-done

Rob

just to confirm.. Dorset was a huge success for STW. i cant remember the exact amount of orders taken but it was our best show to date and has helped to secure our future long past the current run of models

According to the twitter page.......orders at Great Dorset, 6 x 6" Fodens, 6 x 4" Burrells, 5 x 2" Burrells, 1 x Showman's, 1 x Road Loco, 1 x Lykamobile, 4 Wagons & 2 Bowsers.

thanks i knew it was a lot !!! but then i don't do twitter
