点评:Visited the 40s event at Kirkby Stephen East Station while staying near Kendal on holiday.
We parked at the FREE park and ride area and was driven to the event on an old 1946 Leyland Bus which was brilliant.
A tremendous amount of effort and work had gone into the event. We were warmly greeted and told what was happening today.
We booked train tickets and this allowed you to travel as many times on the steam train as you desired and it was great fun on the little ride.
There were military vehicles and people all dressed up and happy to share information with us and even allowed us to sit in an army recovery ambulance and take our photograph.
There was also a lady singing 40s songs and she was very good and a pleasure to listen to.
Inside the platform there were other people dressed up and displaying their 40s collections. It was fabulous fun looking and chatting to so many military enthusiasts.
We enjoyed a lovely cup of coffee and a blueberry muffin in the buffet car which was excellent value.
We had a fantastic time in the 3 hours we were there as everyone was so polite. Friendly and happy to share their knowledge and stories.
Thank you for a brilliant event.

我们把车停在了免费的停车换乘区,然后乘坐一辆1946年的老式利兰巴士前往活动现场,感觉棒极了!
活动组织者投入了大量的心血和精力。我们受到了热情接待,工作人员向我们介绍了当天的活动安排。
我们预订了火车票,凭票可以无限次乘坐蒸汽火车,这段小小的旅程非常有趣。
现场有军用车辆,人们都穿着复古服装,热情地与我们分享信息,甚至还让我们坐进了一辆军用救护车里拍照。
还有一位女士演唱40年代的歌曲,她唱得非常好,听她唱歌是一种享受。
在站台上,还有其他人穿着复古服装,展示着他们的40年代收藏品。和这么多军事爱好者交流聊天,真是太有趣了。
我们在餐车里享用了一杯香浓的咖啡和一个蓝莓松饼,物超所值。
我们在那里度过了非常愉快的三个小时,因为每个人都非常有礼貌,热情友好,乐于分享他们的知识和故事。
感谢你们举办了如此精彩的活动。
