The East Lancashire Railway has experienced a devastating drop in income following the two periods of lockdown, compounded by the enhanced restrictions that have been placed on the Greater Manchester area. The generosity of our supporters, regardless of the size of the contribution, is vital if we are to sustain the East Lancashire Railway for future generations.
