A proud day for me. Max.

Peter Pan hauled the first train on the newly restored Lynton and Barnstable railways since 1935.

Max driving Princess Elizabeth at Worcester Show, Pitchcroft 1956.
After the war, the City Show was a wonderfull event run by enthusiasts. There was a marvellous vintage car and steam engine rally, gymkhana, flower show and sports events.
Pitchcroft was alive and used by the citizens, to whom it belongs, not the horse racing company.
