GWR Castles For The Future

"Our aim is to keep Great Western Railway express steam engines alive on the main line in the 21st Century." (Michael Whitehouse, Chairman Birmingham Railway Museum Trust)

An appeal fund to overhaul 7029 Clun Castle entitled 'Castles For The Future' was formally launched at the Tyseley 100 Open Weekend. If you would like a copy of the appeal leaflet, please click here.

Visitors to the NRM's '1968 An All That' remarked at how wonderful Clun Castle looked, and added that it ought to be back on the mainline. Birmingham Railway Museum Trustees want to do just that, however they need your help.
