Our vehicles are located on the GREAT CENTRAL RAILWAY. Our restoration base is at Rothley carriage shed on the GCR, adjacent to Rothley station (follow brown “steam railway” signs off the A6 between Mountsorrel and Birstall). All vehicles not currently undergoing restoration are stored in the Carriage shed at Swithland sidings. Visitors can be shown around by prior appointment. If you have a particular interest, please contact the secretary listed above.
