Festival of Transport 2019
Festival of Transport 2019
The main problem that the NNRG found this year was that the event had been moved to another date. This clashed with peoples work schedules. This we could not attend.
Its a huge shame to be honest. The first year was a real good event with lots of people attending. Last year also was good.
I am going to talk with the organisers of this event and see if we can get the event on the same date each year. That will be a start so people who want to enter something know what the date will be. Then the organising needs to be looked at. There was a incident last year between one of our group and a rather rude Marshal but this had no bearing on us not attending.
Then the biggest one of all. Advertising. Not one ad was in Bus and Coach Preservation or any of the other magazines out. Nothing in the local press either. That is the first thing that need to be done. Advertise 2 months before the event. Also if you know people who own something that would fit the bill in going ask them to attend.
I say we give it a go next year.
