Having been responsible for the Sir Lamiel for 42 years and having completed three major overhauls in that time, we have an intimate understanding of what needs to be done to bring the 4-6-0 back in order to celebrate its 100th birthday in 2025 in steam. We estimate that we shall need to raise \u00a380,000 over the next three years to fund the necessary repairs.<\/p>\n
