Steam in MIniature at Bressingham

Steam in Miniature

Bressingham Steam & Gardens

Event Date 11 August 2012 - 12 August 2012

Miniature Models that pack a Steamy Punch

Bressingham’s annual Steam in Miniature weekend has come around again where working scale models of steam locomotion are on show, ranging from the large and decorative engines used by fairground showmen and the travelling fairs to the more humble road rollers used to maintain the highways and by-ways. Scales range from 2½ inches to the foot to the larger models of approximately half the size of the originals.

These are truly amazing models with many hundreds of hours work put into them, just as amazing are the real size machines that Bressingham holds in its collection, including the fleet of Narrow Gauge locomotives which will be in steam over the weekend.
