Do many members have kids? If I bring mine (2 & 4yr old) along and there is no one to play with, they might feel a bit ripped off..

You can put me down for 2 adults and 1 child (7 year old ). It is my boy's B'Day and what better a day could he have than on a Steam Train with the FPV club. He is a true Ford Supporter :party3:
