Steam Festival at Exbury Gardens
Steam engines of all shapes and sizes will be on show, from full-size traction engines to miniature road vehicles.
Enthusiasts will find models and miniatures in the Engine Shed, while Exbury’s own Steam Railway will run through Yard Wood, clothed in early autumn colour. This will be the eight year of this event, which grows in popularity and provides a terrific morning and afternoon spectacle as all the steam vehicles parade in front of Exbury House.
The parades are scheduled for 12 noon and 3pm on both the Saturday and Sunday, and offer wonderful photographic opportunities.
