Title: OTD - 14th March (2019) - Ferryhill turntable recommissioned Post by: grahame on March 14, 2022, 04:47:52 http://www.frht.org.uk
Quote The Ferryhill Railway Heritage Trust was established in 2007 to take over the remaining building and turntable of the former Ferryhill locomotive depot, restore it and transform the site into a working railway heritage site for the North East of Scotland. In this endeavour, the Ferryhill Railway Heritage Trust has had widespread support. The turntable was, however, out of use from September 2000 http://www.frht.org.uk/Update_14_Mar_2019.pdf Quote On Thursday, 14 March 2019, the Tornado was successfully rotated on the newly refurbished and commissioned 70’ Ransomes & Rapier turntable in front of our invited guests. This was the culmination of years of dedication by our volunteers and supported by charitable organisations and local companies, without which it would not have been possible to achieve.
