Bolton Steam Museum

Hi All,
I noticed that Bolton Steam Museum have their engines running on steam this weekend. (Dec 29th & 30th) From their website it looks like an interesting place to visit. I have not visited this museum but plan to do so this weekend.

Les and anyone else I would strongly advise it, it is excellent you can get close to the engines and the volunteers know what they are talking about

I'll be there this weekend. Probably on Sunday. If you visit and you are local you could always consider joining the society, it's only £15 and they don't get any help from public funds.

I visited a couple of months ago with the sole purpose of seeing Peter Southworths model of "Agnes", a Pollit & Wigzell tandem compound mill engine.

I am building the exact same model and it was very inspiring to see a completed one built to such a high standard.

There is also a truly remarkable model of the full sized engine at Bancroft mill in Barnoldswick on display at Bolton.
