Sponsor a component Scheme

List number 3 (September 2007)

We will need to make or purchase a very large number of individual components in order to build the locomotive. These will range in price and I hope provide something affordable to most pockets. The idea is that each issue we produce a list of component parts available to be sponsored with their prices. If you, your friends or your company would like to sponsor a particular item then contact our Treasurer with a cheque made out to the Bluebell Railway Trust (and of course a Gift Aid form if you have not already filled one in). You will in return receive an attractive Sponsorship Certificate (designed by Matthew Cousins) detailing your particular sponsored item. These will be suitable for framing should you wish. Each item on the list is individual so no one else will be sponsoring the same item.
