More stock for Churnet Valley Railway

-

Valley Railway has secured another Mk.1 for use on its future services to Leek, this being CK 15663 from Peak Rail.

Largely unrestored and still partly in BR blue/grey, it will require a full overhaul before it can be used and is currently stored away from the railway to await its turn in the workshop.

A further £7500 is sought in donations to help cover the cost of purchasing two more Mk.1s that are available but in need of attention. Donations can be made at www. totalgivin­g.co.uk/appeal/cvr_coaches
