Come and join us for another fabulous run up the Putty Road to Maitland for the annual Steam Fest.  This year marks the 30th Anniversary of the event, which has grown into the largest festival of steam in Australia.  Featured will be all things steam powered, including steam trains operating from Maitland station, various operating steam engines, traction engines etc., plus market stalls and various other displays at Steam Fest Rally Grounds, next to the railway station. (Group parking near Maitland Steam Park to be fine-tuned closer to the event.)

There will be a morning tea stop at Grey Gums Café near Putty on the Putty Road, approximately half way to our destination.

Multiple vendors at the markets - a cash supply would be wise. Please ensure you have a full tank of fuel before leaving the pickup location as there is limited fuel along the run route.

RSVP Required by 2nd April 2016 to Glenn at: wineman61@gmail.com
