    Does that mean they’ll have to pile down to that level?

    Just got a small windfall and bunged them £500 (£625 with gift aid), I hope they make the target soon so they can get stuck in.

    Always make sure you use gift aid when donating if you possibly can!

    For those who don't "Do" You Tube, the video confirms the ground investigation is all correct and presents no problem. The latest environmental survey has been done again with no significant issues raised. The Factory Flyover and Urban Viaduct detailed specification and drawings are complete and paid for. Over £2.9M is in the bank with fundraising obviously ongoing.
    The visit of Tornado and Flying Scotsman to the GCR(N) has gone very well and limited evening running has been approved.
    Well done to all involved for what has been lots of hard work.

    Well that really is an excellent presentation by all concerned!
    And "Yes", as an early member of the MLPG (Main Line Preservation Group, member #10) I am extremely proud of what has been achieved by the efforts of so many people who have given time, money and good will to support the GCR....and continue "Forward".
