�� Steam at Work 2026 ��
� Saturday 22nd & Sunday 23rd August
Join us for the Rural Life Living Museum’s biggest steam event of the year — and experience steam power as it was meant to be seen… at work!
Unlike traditional rallies with rows of polished engines, Steam at Work is a fully working event where engines are powering machinery, hauling loads, moving around the site, and bringing history to life across our beautiful 15-acre museum grounds. ��
This year’s event will feature:
� Full-sized traction engines
� Road rollers
� Steam lorries
� Showman’s engines
� Miniature engines across the site
� Stationary & portable steam engines in action

And of course, our very own railway! The Old Kiln Light Railway will be running throughout the weekend with steam locomotives and heritage diesel engines offering rides through the Museum grounds. �
Don’t miss the spectacular Grand Parade of Engines each afternoon at 14:00!
Come and enjoy the sights, sounds, smells, and atmosphere of working steam in the heart of the Rural Life Living Museum, the perfect way to celebrate summer with family and friends. �
