Business profile
We plan initially to repair the best boiler from either 2874 or 3845 and exchange it for the one currently in use on 3850, when its overhaul becomes due in 2016, and thus to allow 3850 to continue in service We are a group of approximately 500 members and we own four standard gauge railway steam locomotives designed by the Great Western Railway Since 1995, when our first restoration was completed, two of our locomotives have been in service on the WSR and we expect the other two to follow in due course, once restoration work has been completed All our own input, whether administrative or practical, is given on a voluntary basis and all monies raised are applied to the purchase, restoration and overhaul of engines and support facilities All four engines have come to us in scrapyard condition and we restore them to working order using a combination of our own volunteer labour and paid contract work
