Everyone enjoyed the open air chess blitz at Whitehead Railway Museum. Sat 3rd Oct 2020
Steam Trains and Chess - what a brilliant mix. Brendan Jamison organised with Chris Dorrian who arranged the venue and help setup with Edward Hanzharov. The Whitehead Railway Museum provided a covered outside set of table - many thanks.
