Recent Web Site Activity

With progress reports now coming in thick and fast, a small change to the web site menu has been made with the creation of a new button 'Progress Reports'. Click on that and you quickly find the most recent report posted.

It was with considerable pleasure that a new page was added to this site on the 16th October [2024] about the restarting of restoration work on 488 after a very long lull in activity. If it continues apace then maybe we could see passengers boarding this 'caur' for a ride in as little as two years' time!

Work remains constrained with the budget available so please consider making a donation, however small, to ensure activity continues on 488 until the work is completed. Past efforts indicate the work required on the top deck is nowhere as involved as what was required for the lower deck, so rapid progress could be made from now on. To have a healthy buffer of finance ensures extra resources can be called upon from time to time.

Your Webmaster doesn't know how many hours has been put in to research and create this web site, but it is conservatively considered to be around a thousand hours. Then there is the yearly hosting and domain name registration fees to be paid of around £70 per year, which has come out of my back pocket. If only there was a way to collect a few pennies from each visitor to buy a pint every now and then, that would go down really well!

Maybe there is. If you have derived pleasure for visiting this site today, then click on the 'Pay Now' button in the image above. Overwrite the box called "Price per item" with the amount of your donation and press the Continue button. The minimum sum that can be transmitted is 50p.
