    No I do not currently volunteer
    As this has come straight to Haven Street, rather than the off site storage facility, does that imply that restoration is planned in the not too distant future?

    Yes I am an active volunteer
    It could well be that the storage site is full at the moment. There are a number of wagons I would like to get onto the restoration queue but at the moment there is the tram and 2 coaches to finish off to free up the space in the carriage works. Next we have a bit of work to catch up on the running fleet before looking at a new project to start. Given this I expect the brake van will be a way off unless there is a need for it to be restored for use or someone turns up with a bag of cash.

    Reading the latest issue of Trackside, appears that the nine Metropolitan coaches at St Helens have been donated to the IWSR by Isle of Wight Council, which possible one going to the Buckinghamshire Railway Centre at Quainton Road. There is also mention that the 1862 Cowes & Newport railway body @ Gurnard near Cowes is also being moved to Havenstreet.

    Looks like the c & w team will be busy
