Boscastle Locomotive Ltd

Boscastle Locomotive Ltd was formed in 2005 with the sole purpose of putting
Rebuilt West Country class locomotive 'Boscastle' back in working order and maintaining it in that state.

The private limited company was formed, as a more effective way of raising money for the locomotive. All funds received from any source will be put towards this cause.

The monies raised so far have enabled the Company to send the boiler away to a firm in Somerset for the necessary specialist repairs which will include cutting out and replacement of large sections of the firebox plating.

We have also engaged a contractor to work on the rest of the locomotive and subject to funding he will be able to complete the complex task of re-assembly.
 
   Reversion to voluntary-only labour is not a realistic option.
