Work advancing well on refurbishments..
The staff are still hard at it, getting the MPLR looking as good as they can for this summer. Work on the Pitz Cafe has been completed, along with a new car park and road! One of the biggest jobs has been restoring the roof and bell tower of St Thomas Chapel! The Reverend Grubb is very pleased with the result and is hoping one day that Moreton Pit will be able to hear the sounds of its very own bells!
The Board of Directors are also very pleased and relieved that they now legally own Moreton Pit land and are very busy turning the Pit into a Museum and Visitor Centre. They hope that this will attract a lot more visitors to the railway! More about this very soon.
