Welcome to the new home of the Ditcheat Manor appeal. This site tells the story of GWR Manor class No. 7821, explains how you can see her for free in Swindon, and sets out the plan to return her to steam on the West Somerset Railway.
Progress reports, events and appeal news will be posted here. If you would like to help, the quickest way is to make a donation to the 7821 restoration fund.
