The Sussex Steam Engine Club was created in 1993 by a small group of locally based enthusiasts. Their belief that engine owners, operators and supporters would welcome the opportunity to promote their interest in steam preservation has been fully rewarded by the flourishing club.
our Members come from all walks of life and are not restricted to Sussex alone. We are proud to include subscribers from many parts of the UK as well as Europe and the USA. Whatever your interest in steam you can always be assured of a warm welcome.
Members receive four copies of the A5 club magazine "Steam News" every year. From October to April meetings are held on the second Friday of each month. These include talks and videos on a range of preservation topics, though steam is of course to the fore. The December meeting is a Christmas Dinner Dance. The club also organizes a road run in late September.
Our many members support many events across the country with their engines and other exhibits. We have also held our own events like Dial Post Traction Engine Rally & Wiston Steam Rally
