Help us save Wilbert! 😲🥰

Today marks the 80th anniversary since the first book from the Railway Series of children's books was published, and one of the locomotives which inspired one of the very special characters is needing some help.

Our friend Wilbert is currently looking very sorry for itself at the end of a siding, awaiting funds to help put him back together and receive new paintwork.

So, how can you help? Simple! Buy one of our limited edition Wilbert locomotives, and we will donate the proceeds to the restoration. To cosmetically restore Wilbert, we need to raise £7.500. Sales of our limited edition model, featuring our now famous "Accurascale Exclusives" packaging and bonus material, including a letter from the Awdry family, and certificate will be included in the box too. Priced at £149.95 for DC/DCC Ready and £249.95 for DCC Sound fitted. 😲
