Cumbria Easter Rally 2024

Formerly known as 'Kirkby Stephen & Brough Classic Commercial Vehicle Rally' up to and including 2019. The 2024 event was the 24th rally held in the Eden Valley in Cumbria, and the third with a new organising team. On the weekend of 30 and 31 March, many classic vehicles could be noted around the local roads and on show at various sites in the villages. A free bus service connecting Brough, Winton and Kirkby Stephen was offered, giving the visitor an opportunity to sample some historic passenger service vehicle delights! Since 2022, there has been a route extension beyond the Kirkby Stephen west station to the Fat Lamb Country Inn near Ravenstonedale. The weekend as graced with glorious weather, with beautiful sunshine and pleasant temperatures but an increasingly keen breeze late on Sunday. This year also saw free timetabled bus service running to the Eden Valley Railway at Warcop.

A road run leaving Brough at 1630 hrs on the Saturday afternoon saw vehicles taking a challenging route of approximately 25 miles via Kirkby Stephen, Great Asby and Soulby.
