After another round of musical stations the music has stopped and the Leicester Rally is back at Quorn Station as originally planned.

The same weekend was going to be the public launch of "Tornado" the brand new steam loco that has been built over the last 20 years or so but this has now been delayed so Quorn is now available again which has much more room for us.

The 2 stations are fairly close and we have been promised signs & staff at Rothley will redirect anyone who arrives there.

Please ask for any further info

Just got back. It was nice to meet a few of you from the messageboard again, and was overall a very enjoyable rally (despite the lousy weather).
Thanks Rog for organising it, was brilliant.
