A museum in Bolton will showcase the industrial relics which powered the town's industry this weekend. 

Bolton Steam Museum is holding its Autumn Steamings on Saturday, October 26 and Sunday, October 27. 

The stationary steam engines which powered Bolton's cotton-spinning industry will be running.

 Volunteers only run them for the public a few times a year. 

Their oldest engine is now more than 180 years old, with most being well over a century old.
