"Brass Monkeys at the Station" Land Rover meet, Shildo
n Railway Museum Co. Durham
By: stuartn Date: August 31, 2016, 7:15 am
---------------------------------------------------------
Hey up,
Way back in January 2015, NERO (North East Rover Owners) hosted
a Land Rover meet at Shildon "Locomotion" Railway Museum.
The event was deemed a success with 47 Land Rovers of all
varieties in attendance, including a sizeable number from this
parish.
The decision has been made to hold a repeat event on SUNDAY 22nd
JANUARY 2017 and annually thereafter.
The museum is free to enter, so when you have bored of Land
Rovers (or more likely when your bollocks have frozen off) you
can go in the museum for a look round. It is one of the best
railway museums in the country and is part of the NRM. They have
a good little caf� which serves hot meals and snacks etc and of
course full loo facilities.
Last time round it was an excellent day for meeting up with
people you don't see often and meeting people you have not met
before, whilst having a casual look round all manner of Land
Rovers before heading in to the museum for a hot cup of tea.
The meet will be right outside the main doors in the square, so
do not park in the car park.
So the details are:
Sunday 22nd January 2017
Provisional time 10:30 onwards
"Locomotion" Railway Museum, Shildon
DL4 2RE
Further information to follow closer to the time.
I hope to see you there!

We were there last weekend, youngest daughter loved it,
especially the Stainer Black 5 after I told her where it
featured in 'the Railway Series'.
Might be up for another trip over.

You can't really turn that down can you?
Well, if time and funds permit then we'll likely turn up with
one of the Land Rovers.

Who's actually going?
We could convoy it
It's a 10am start over there so it's about a hour from my house
That's probably a half eight from Penrith etc
Who's up for it?
It's a good doo for those who haven't been before
Plenty of stuff to do except Landrovers as well

Quote from NERO
"The following Sunday is our Brass Monkey Land Rover Gathering
at the Railway Museum, Shildon. We might top 75 Land Rovers
this year! Please come along in any Land Rover you may have.
Following the entrance all of the way into the front of the
museum. Do not follow signs for parking as that is located away
from the station.
Please come along any time from 10.15am."
