Gabriel is in pieces - can you help get her a new boiler?

Anne from Kerikeri District

We are busy fundraising to replace Gabriel's 90 year old boiler which cannot be used any longer due to thinning of the metal.
We have had a quote for $85,000, just for a new boiler which, with parts and cranage, will amount to $100,00 total (BIG GULP) ...

We are busy fundraising to replace Gabriel's 90 year old boiler which cannot be used any longer due to thinning of the metal.
We have had a quote for $85,000, just for a new boiler which, with parts and cranage, will amount to $100,00 total (BIG GULP) ...

This seems to be an impossibly large amount, but we believe we can do it with a little help from our friends and supporters ....

We ask that you help by spreading the news to at least 2 other sets of people you know, requesting that they do likewise - spreading the news worldwide ....
We have about 10,000 people following our railway exploits on Facebook ... so if we spread the news further afield, and every one helps with a few dollars each ....

we can do it, we can do it, we can do it ... !!

Gabriel is the only side-tank steam engine of her type in the world. She is the first engine in the world to work on the 1st January 2000, and the last engine to haul a train over the longest curved wooden bridge in the Southern Hemisphere.

We have just set up a Givealittle page for this fundraising effort.
Our Organisation page is: Bay of Islands Vintage Railway

Please click on this link below if you would like to donate a little something to help:
givealittle.co.nz...

Please also forward this message to anyone you know so that we can network as far afield as possible.

With your help we can get Gabriel back onto the tracks very soon.
Thanking you so much in anticipation
