UPDATE Fowler Roller Towards the start of this year we had in our works a steam roller. Part of the Geller Jones collection based in the National Trust site at Llanerchaeron the steam roller came to us for assessment for a ten yearly overhaul. This assessment allows for a fundraising goal to be set for the steam roller to hopefully bring it into steam in the not too distant future.

Sierra Leone Railway No.85 After a period of storage following an assessment for overhaul No.85 from the Welshpool & Llanfair Railway was reassembled and returned to its home railway. It will now aid the fundraising effort on display in Raven Square at the WLLR.
