An alien visitor to Sandbach?
Readers of the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy will be familiar with the name Ford Prefect. He took his earthly name from this model of car, seen here at a transport festival.
2019 Sandbach transport festival
The transport festival has been an annual feature of the town since 1992. Originally held over the May bank holiday weekend, it is now on a weekend in April. It celebrates all forms of road transport from motorbikes to large lorries and buses, from veteran steam traction engines to the latest models.
For many years there was a parade of vintage vehicles but in the last few years the event has morphed into just static exhibits on Scotch Common- mainly cars on Saturday, larger vehicles on Sunday.
