Beamish Museum (NE England)
 
How sad what happened at Beamish today:

Awful for the family, and for all those witnesses. Hits home more I think when it's somewhere you've been visiting since you were a kid.

I don't remember there being steamrollers to ride on so possibly something like that, yes. First weekend of the school holidays so I suppose there would have been more of the vehicles out and more helpers.
