Official press release:
Amberley
Museum’s Autumn Industrial Trains event, primarily aimed at the enthusiast,
this year falls on Sunday 11th October
Much
of the industrial loco collection will be out and about, and down at the De
Witt Kilns we should have the standard gauge Simplex 4wDM loco ‘Burt’ in action
at various times.
A
conducted ‘Behind the scenes tour’ will take place at 2pm (meet in the triangle
area, takes about an hour).We’re looking forward to meeting old and making new
friends.
We
also offer 1-day ‘Steam Footplate Experiences’ through the year, so why not ask
one of our railway volunteers about which dates might suit you?
