🚂 Come along and visit our stand at Highley, have a browse, and take a look at our “Tank End” model railway layout.
Why not try your luck on our Tombola, pick up a bargain, and help support a great cause at the same time?
Every penny raised goes towards the overhaul of locomotive 4566, helping to return this much-loved engine to steam.
We’d love to see you, so pop by, say hello, and support the overhaul of our locomotive! 🚂💚

Congratulations to our friends and colleagues in The Severn Valley Railway Pannier Tank Fund for organising their first sales stand in 30 years and making great progress joining the ranks of the growing nucleus of newly reformed and active SVR loco bowling groups. The same position we found ourselves in only 3 years ago. Best of luck to you from us ❤️

👀📣 A PLEA FOR SOME BODIES 📣👀
We have been donated some lovely models recently, unfortunately the bodies on two of them have had a bit of a rough time, we’d love for you to have a rummage and see if you can find us:
👉A GWR Green Hornby (Tender Drive) 28xx loco body.
👉A GWR Green Bachmann (or Mainline) Manor loco body.
Running names or numbers are not important.
If you are able to help us please drop us a line. 👍❤️
