Boiler Appeal
By the end of August 2018 the boiler appeal became complete as we reached our target of £225,000. A brilliant effort by all of you who contributed. The boiler work is nearly complete and we expect to carry out the first hydraulic test during the winter of 2018/19.
During Steel, Steam & Stars IV the Society launched the £225,000 Boiler Appeal. There are many levels of contribution with different rewards and recognition on offer.

The boiler chosen to be refurbished is the one acquired by the Society from Willington Hall and it is hoped to have this ready within 2 years to get 6880 onto the rails.cc
