Everywhere in Britain, the railway scene is changing and modernising. Familiar railway sights like signal boxes will soon be a thing of the past, unless we act now.

We want to save 3 old Midland railway signal boxes and signalling equipment so that we can rebuild them for future generations to enjoy on our steam railway.

The newly formed Vale of Berkeley Railway in Gloucestershire is dedicated to saving railway artefacts from the past that are disappearing fast so that we can restore them to their former glory. Then we can show future generations the magic of the old steam era railways.

We are on the point of obtaining 3 of these lovely old signal boxes, together with a supply of Victorian equipment through our links with Network Rail. This could happen within a very few weeks and we will need to pay to remove them, transport them to Gloucestershire and then begin the job of rebuilding them at their new home.

If we can raise £5000, we can pay for the dismantling and transport costs, move them and then start to renovate them. With your help, they can be made as good as new, displayed and used on a working steam railway to be enjoyed by everyone

This is a once in a lifetime chance to save items from the railways of the past. If these go for scrap, they are gone for ever.

Please help us raise this money as soon as possible.
