    Can we have this thread "Sticky-ed" ? As it's useful.

    Notice Ecclesbourne have altered there Steam in the Valley to a Mixed Traction event, and the ELR have their L&Y/LNWR gala over the same weekend.

    I need to update the first post. I've also noticed the Spa Valley event the same weekend has disappeared from the website.

    Just had a look on the Foxfield website and there is a banner saying "While big trains are resting during engineering work, Foxfield site is OPEN each weekend – enjoy delicious food at our Buffet, our exciting Museum and our lovely shop. PLUS get your Gift Certificates to join us for our special events listed in the Calendar" - the calendar does only go up to the end of June showing no running, so hopefully they maybe open again in July but if works could overrun they may not want to commit to a big event and pay for advertising etc and then have to cancel?

    I had sort of mentally assumed that if anything was planned it would be around the time of the Autumn event they ran for a few years, but I have no true knowledge on what the plans may be for 2022.

    I can't find it now but sure I read a comment on Facebook somewhere recently which alluded to there maybe being an Autumn event, so possibly something to keep an eye out for!
