In 1955 when British Railways announced its modernisation plan there were over 13,000 steam locomotives at work in the British Isles, by 1968 these had been entirely eliminated.
These pages are dedicated to one class of locomotive of which none survived the cutters torch, the Great Western Railway ‘Grange‘ class, and our plans to build a new locomotive to this seventy-five year old design.
Find out how the ‘Grange’ class locomotives became the ‘engineman’s engine‘, why we have chosen to build Betton Grange, and most importantly, how you can help us to do it.
Join us to get the latest project information on our news page. Are you part of it?
