On Saturday 15th and Sunday 16th May The Hawker Hurricane Society attended the 1940's Weekend event at the Kent & East Sussex Railway at very short notice. We were offered what turnded out to be a good spot for our display just inside the main gate to the station. Everyone had to come past us to get to the rest of the displays and the trains.
All of the stations are decked out to show how they would have looked in wartime with re-enactors dressed in period costumes, both Civil and Military as well as period vehicles to help set the scene.
We had a very good weekend with a large amount of interest, with the weather mostly dry during the weekend and a good crowd to.
We also made a lot of new friends over the weekend; l would like to say a special thank-you to Liz Reid of the Kent & East Sussex Railway for offering to help us out at such short notice and for all her help during the
weekend.
