We’re delighted to team up with Tim Dunn, energetic railway historian and television presenter, to help get our epic Reunification project to more people. It’s not just one of the UKs biggest heritage railway projects, its one of the UKs biggest heritage projects full stop.
We let him tour the trackbed, looking at what’s been done, what’s coming next and just how small the gap between the two railways really is. Enjoy our new film below, giving us a taste of the Great Central Railway’s reunified future. Even better, Tim will be popping up with more deep dives into the project soon.
If you’d like to make a donation, we’re currently raising money with the view to building more of the project next summer. We have £2.6m banked and we need to get to £3.5m so we can bring the builders back. Pound by pound is how we’re putting the railways back together, so a heartfelt thank you from everyone at the GCR in Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire for any support you can give us.
Its easy to donate. Click below and make a one off donation online, or even set up a regular monthly contribution. If you prefer, download our latest appeal leaflet to donate using a cheque. Just a few pounds every month soon adds up to a generous gift. A regular income also gives other potential funders confidence in our plans.
You can also text UNIFY to 70970 to donate £5.
