WE DESPARATELY NEED YOUR HELP TO CONTINUE!
The work so far has depleted our funds and to continue to progress at the same rate we need your help. It is expected that by the time we have finished we will have spent in the region of £150,000 on the repair / rebuild / restoration of the loco. We have currently spent in the region of £30,000, so there is still some way to go!
This is an important loco in that it served in France during the First World War along with 753 (now on the KESR) and as such became one of the first standard gauge ROD locomotives.
No.27 was also part of the pioneer fleet of locos on the Bluebell Railway, being the second P class to arrive and working virtually continuously from March 1961 until September 1974.
This loco deserves to be working again!
