The fire service are planning on doing a " rescue" where by a car will be placed partially under class 37108 and a fireman will be inside and shown how someone is cutout of a crushed car, (should be interesting as long as the 37 dont move ! lol ), also there will be class 03 brake van rides, Classes 47, 87, 37's, 73,86 ( at the bottom of the site), 08, APT-P and variuos steam locos, also 3 signal boxes open to the public, display stands, refreshments,gift shop, miniature railway, exhibits in the main hall, model railways, classes 47 and 87 will have the cabs open and other display vehicles ( S.T.A).
