1145

Churchward passenger brake. Built in 1922. Purchased in 1973 from Bristol. These vans were built for carrying parcels and similar goods and also for use on milk trains. It has been used on the Valley as a grotto for Santa and is now used as a shop for the Bewdley station fund. Its complete restoration is some way off.

2007 update: In a joint project with the LNER (SVR) Coach Fund basic conservation & restoration work has started to provide sound accomodation for the Fund's shop at Bewdley. This will release the Fund's Pigeon van 70759 from its current shop duties for restoration.
