Great Dorset Steam Fair Radio 22-26 August 2019
By William Frisk

The Great Dorset Steam Fair 2019 will take place over the August Bank
Holiday weekend, from Thursday 22nd to Monday 26th August 2019, on the
show grounds near Tarrant Hinton on the A345.  https://www.gdsf.co.uk/

If you cannot make it this year there are _two_ online radio stations
for listening anywhere on this planet.

Steam Fair FM was already on the air last Saturday as the grounds fill
up with exhibitors and features oldies and news of the fair from opening
until 27 August.  Then it disappears until next year.  Adverts are for
traders on the show site including, flags, Calor Gas, old motor parts
and other ancient mechanical bits and bobs.  Email a dedication for
fellow fair enthusiasts.  https://steamfairfm.com/

James Dundon will have his Mechanical Music Radio on site as well, with
live reports about the Fair.  Programming is mechanical music, so lots
of organ music as well as other mechanically played instruments and more
"organized" tunes.  http://mechanicalmusicradio.com/

I am not sure which night the midnight whistle blow occurs.  That would
be 7 p.m. Eastern Time in USA.  It used to be on Saturday before the new
schedule.
