Fundraiser for 2022, is to raise funds and complete our Carriage Shed, this will feature three roads to store six carriages, this will be joined to the main running line via a new passing loop to be constructed to allow a two train service something we have found is needed on busy running days. The carriage shed will have brick built sides and concrete floor with a pitched roof, we need to raise in the region of about £1000 to complete this project. To help with fund raising we are pleased to announce our “Pick a number ” competition, entries are £2 each you can pick a bespoke number or numbers subject to availability or a random number will be supplied, the winning number will be drawn at random at the end of 2022, First prize is an original painting by Wrenford Thatcher of 34081 with a freight train at Wansford (The painting can be seen in the Miniature Railway Shop, second Prize is a footplate ride on a Steam or Diesel Locomotive.
