Do you know any place like museum, where I can donation some wagon, tracks and tunnel cover?
I have sold most on eBayer, some still haven't been sold on eBay fee it becomes more expensive over the months so I decide to donation it quickly

I am base in Colchester, Essex

thank you

Charity shops will take them, but try and find one that seems to make a degree of effort to find out demand for items other than Jeffrey Archer "novels" and dead peoples' clothing. Town and City Centre Oxfam branches seem to be better at this.

Looks like the Colne Valley Railway is near to Colchester, might be worth asking them if they're interested

Colne Valley Railway were not interested, but the East Anglian Railway in Wakes & Chappel absolutely love it, so thank you for advice.

I hope I am not too late in replying. But you could try places like "the British Heart Foundation" or "Cancer Research UK". I have donated some surplus model railway stuff to them in the past and helping out some good causes in the process

As long as you are sure that they can sell it on. I used to work in a charity shop where we occasionally received old Hornby/Tri-Ang model rail kit, which really wasn't suitable.
