One result of a chance meeting at the 2026 Great Rempstone Steam Show was a suggestion that a useful addition to this site would be a rally by rally index of engines attending. This would allow enthusiasts to assess whether a future event might be worth attending. This is a first attempt to cover those rallies which are not reported on by the traditional reports on this site. To be honest, I don't have the time or energy to increase the current scope even if someone was to offer me pictures of the rallies listed below.

The most recent additions are Longstock Rally, Earls Barton Transport Show, Island Steam Fair, Rona Steam and Vintage Rally, Red by Night, Black Country Living Museum, Sussex Steam Rally and Balls Cross Steam Rally (all on 11th September 2026)

Previous additions were Thursford Gala Day (10th September 2026), Hollycombe Steam Festival, Wiltshire Steam and Vintage Rally, Stoke Row Steam and Vintage Rally, Breamore Countryside Museum, Steam Working Weekend (all on 8th September 2026) and Richmond Light Railway Charity Steam Fair (29th August 2026).
