by NWPG UK in Lydney, Gloucestershire, United Kingdom
The NWPG is again turning to our loyal followers and supporters to assist us in acquiring a former MOD VDA Van (PDA) and three HEA Wagons.
DB Cargo UK recently issued a tender for the three HEA wagons at Warrington Arpley. We have always expressed our interest in these three very important wagons to the current owners and asked them to be put to one side in order for us to preserve these.
Unfortunately, at the same time, a very unique opportunity arose to acquire a Van which we desperately need for storage of spares and railwayana at Lydney (DFR). We have also facilitated the acquisition of 10 VEA Vans from the MOD too, more details on this to follow at the end of the Crowdfunder (we do not require funds for these).
Please donate as much as you can afford. It is very important that these historic wagons are saved for the future.
