HUNDREDS of exhibitors are expected to attend an annual vintage vehicle rally in the region this weekend.

Cars, commercial vehicles, engines, tractors and bikes will be on show at the Beamish museum, County Durham, on Saturday and Sunday.

There will also be small collections of photographs as well as pre-war pushchairs and prams on show.

A spokeswoman for Beamish said: "This is one of the most popular events on the Beamish calendar for both visitors and participants with exciting, wide-ranging collections on display.

"There is something to capture everyone's imaginations."

Included in the exhibition will be a rare 1937 Albion wagon, which is the only one of its type running in the UK.

One of only two 1936 Standard Avon Flying 16s in the world will also be on show.

Visitors will also be able to see a pre-war Chinese Army sidecar outfit and a French Motobecane bike, which folds away into a suitcase.
