Friends of Vintage Trains
The Friends of Vintage Trains is the volunteer support organisation for Vintage Trains. The primary aim of the Friends is supporting main-line steam for future generations, with a membership that is based in the Birmingham area but extends to the whole of the United Kingdom and abroad. We offer both financial support for restoration projects and volunteer support to Vintage Trains, based at Tyseley Locomotive Works.
