    What a year for our little Sales Stand! We’ve closed our 7th and final Sales Stand of the year at the Great Central Railway ‘Last Hurrah’ event, raising just under £1300 for 2857.

    In 2026 we’ve raised around £22,500 from the 7 stands we’ve done, which is a huge chunk of this years Society income. We’d just like to thank each and everyone of you who has given us your support, we couldn’t do it without you.

    So now on to 2027…..10 Sales Stands next year!!
    Starting with the SVR Winter Steam Gala on January 2/3 at Kidderminster.

    As ever if you’d like to get involved and volunteer on Sales Stand do get in touch! It’s quite rewarding to see the funds raise allowing our engine to make progress.
