    Hello

    I thought some members might be interested in this appeal to save some more MGR wagons in addition to those at the NRM.

    Hope this is of interest

    If anyone is interested, the group was successful in purchasing wagon 355798 and it will shortly move to Barrow Hill. They now have the chance to purchase another of the vew few remaining examples.

    Posted on the Chasewater Railway Facebook page yesterday

    "Chasewater Railway are proud to announce the arrival of the first half of our HAA wagon fleet. We would like to thank Andrew Goodman from Moveright for his invaluable help in securing the first three vehicles in the rake. These wagons will help us tell the final part of the story of the movement of coal from the Staffordshire coal fields, along with our rake of 16tonners. Our carpenters are also busy refurbing the first of the wooden four plank local Coal wagons that will form the initial part of the story. The first public running of our new wagons will be on Coal train day 21st June. Come along and see the currently biggest rake of HAA wagons in preservation."

    The MGR Wagon appeal (unconnected ) has been successful in saving two both now at Barrow Hill
