As we let everyone know on this thread the Forum Staff are seeking to donate £500 of surplus funds accumulated from operating the forum to a Railway Preservation project to be chosen by the membership.
We've now gathered a list of suggestions and this is your opportunity to select which project should get the forum's support!
Please vote using the poll above and see below for a list of the projects with links to the projects website (if available) and to the proposers post on the original thread with reasons why you should support the project:
Please think carefully about which project you think the forum should support and vote according using the poll above.
The winner will be the project with the most votes and will be announced after the poll closes on Sunday 16 November.
The Forum Staff would like to thank everyone who has suggested a project, it has been really interesting to find out about all these projects going on all over the country.
Unfortunately not all the projects suggested were eligible for going into the poll. Please see this post for our reasons for excluding them. Anyone is of course welcome to donate to those deserving projects themselves but they did not meet the criteria we were looking for.
Happy voting!
