    The replica of original WHR carriage Number 25 has now arrived at the Welsh Highland Heritage Railway. Pictures are here:

    There’s still plenty of work to do to get this carriage ready for service, including several more coats of paint (outside) and varnish (inside), as well as fitting couplings and machining door handles. To raise money to cover this work, we’re auctioning a ticket for the first Baldwin-hauled train on the WHR on 2nd May. You’ll also get a cup of tea from the newly restored WHR Buffet Car as it makes its first revenue earning trip since the 1930s. Details are here:

    Or you can just give us some money ;-) £15 or more and you get to travel on the Baldwin train:
