Save the Sittingbourne and Kemsley!!!!

STOP PRESS!

This is an emergency public announcement on belhalf of a member of the Heritage sector who desperately needs help in surviving. The Sittingbourne and Kemsley Light Railway is an industrial heritage railway operating out of Sittingbourne Paper Mill, which is owned by Finnish company M-real and is currently up for sale. As a result, the railway has been given notice to quit the place they have been for almost 40 years to leave when the lease runs out at the end of January.

The line is attempting to tender a bid to buy the land, and desperately needs our help in raising money. I encourage all railfans and history lovers to dig deep and help our friends in Sittingbourne to keep an important piece of industrial history running. A donation of 20 pounds (50$AU) is not a huge amount, and it will be especially worth it if we can all pull off the impossible, done only with our help.
