Perfect Summer Weekend - East Lancs Railway & Burrs Country Park

JULY 2021 - Here's a video made with some footage I discovered stuffed down the back of the sofa ;)
During the summer, while we had the cute little Bailey Discovery D4-2 on loan, Dougal and I spent a glorious weekend at Burrs Country Park Caravan and Motorhome Club Site in Bury, Lancashire.
It's one of my favourite sites, not least because of its superb location bang in the middle of the country park itself, and being adjacent to the East Lancashire Railway which runs steam trains and Heritage Diesels most weekends throughout the year, and daily throughout the school holidays.
After a trip on the Railway to Rawenstall and Bury back via Ramsbottom, we take a relaxing afternoon walk around Burrs Country Park.

    I know this heritage rail pretty well. Living in the Manchester area, we always take our family guests - when they visit us - to this jewel of Lancashire. Our son loved the Thomas the Tank engine days when he was a toddler. Thumbs 👍🏼
