WE NEED YOUR HELP towards our D49 Morayshire #BackOnTheRails Fundraising Appeal: https://t.co/VFHFEtd90h

The loco should have left Llangollen Railway as a fully overhauled locomotive. Instead, this wonderful and unique locomotive was evicted as a kit of unfinished parts.

1/ Many of our visitors (and volunteers) have missed @Mus_Scot_Rways which has been closed during the 2021 season due to the construction elements of our #SteamingAhead project.

[Mus_ScottishRailways @Mus_Scot_Rways]

We found these leaflets in a donation last week.

We wanted to share them as @bonessrailway are raising funds to complete the overhaul of D49 'Morayshire' or The Mighty Morayshire as the leaflet states.
