    That links to a "General Reconstruction Effort" appeal, not one for the buildings.

    The donation link posted by @H Cloutt is the correct one, also appearing in the RVR post linked below. The blog makes clear that:
    “Our two major benefactors are generously covering the basic cost of rebuilding the 2.1/2 mile missing link but Rother Valley Railway Heritage Trust (RVRHT) must raise the funds to finish off the Robertsbridge Junction Station site. That includes the station building, loco watering facility, loco shed and carriage shed.”

    So please send all your money :)

    I think I read somewhere that the cost of the Station Building was covered by a legacy and that the Carriage Shed and Engine Shed were estimated at £200,00 each.

    £400,000 each (they’ll be very good, like everything else on the RVR) - so please send all your money, mine isn’t quite enough :)
