20th-21st September 2003

THE 29TH GRAND HENHAM STEAM RALLY

Today's weather: A hot and sunny day more like summer than autumn.

The 29th Grand Henham Steam Rally had to leave its spiritual home on the Henham estate in Suffolk this year and move at short notice to the Norfolk Showground just outside Norwich but was bigger and better than ever with many more displays and machinery and all sorts of thing to see and do.
