military vehicle festival

Hundreds of visitors enjoyed the annual ‘Wheels of War: Past & Present’ military vehicle show at Crewe Heritage Centre, writes Jonathan White.

The show featured military vehicle displays, trade stalls, model displays, and a tombola.

There was musical entertainment from the South Cheshire George Formby Ukulele Society and from vintage vocalist Ruth Washington.

A 1940s themed big band dance party took place in the Centre’s Exhibition Hall with live music from The Wychcraft Big Band.

Numerous people wore 1940s clothing over the weekend.

Crewe Heritage Centre, which celebrated its 30th anniversary in July this year, was open to visitors including its three signal boxes, the Advanced Passenger Train, model railway displays and layouts, static locomotive displays and rides on a miniature railway.

The event was organised by Crewe & District Military Vehicle Club in support of Help for Heroes.

Crewe & District Military Vehicle Club meets on the last Tuesday evening of each month at Hops Belgium Bar in Crewe.

New members are welcome. For further information visit http://www.cdmvc.co.uk/

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
