Beamish Rural District Council is born!
Phil Anderson, sign-writer, has been in today working on the steam roller and water cart in readiness for their appearance in Newcastle on Saturday. We needed a convincing form of wording for our road mending fleet (which will eventually extend to several vehicles and implements) and also wanted to include the word Beamish. I am not a fan of invented liveries and schemes, but I think Beamish Rural District Council (also shortened to Beamish R. D. C.) suits our purpose and is typical enough not to look incongruous.
