We're back to the North East for a wonderful weekend of Eastern Bloc motoring taking in some highlights of this great region! Based in Washington, we will convoy and visit the following attractions:• Friday: We meet after lunch at the North East Land, Sea and Air Museum near Sunderland, with its Avro Vulcan amongst its impressive collection.
• Saturday: Locomotion railway museum, Shildon, with its collection of nationally important locomotives including the original Rocket, Locomotion, and Sans Pareil. In the afternoon, we convoy to Killhope Lead Mining Museum, Cowshill.
• Sunday : Beamish – The Living Museum of the North. We have discounted admission and will display our vehicles within the museum itself! A whole day won’t be enough to see all of this world class museum! http://www.beamish.org.uk
• Monday: We convoy to the Ryhope Engines Museum with its spectacular working steam
beam engines.
