A summary of the Object and PoweTS of the Furne&s Railway TrLL8t is attached as Appendix A at the end of this Teport. The principal activities of the Furnoss Rallway Trust (FRT) during 2023 were the acquisitio rtOtiOn and operation of historie itenL8 of rolling st(k The TteeS worked to addr the long tern] objective of the establishment of a railway museurll, with appropriate faciliti&s for the display, storage and restoration of railway rolling st(k and aCIated equipment. In shaping the TrLt'S objectives the Trustees gave due consideration to the Charity Conllniwon's guidance on public benefit with the object of advancing education through its work, both in the short and longer tenn. The Trustee8 also tk into acLY)unt the need to Maxin public acco]b]lity to its &ssets, some of which are unique and of major historieal imp)rtanee, including affordability wherever rK>ssible. 4. Achievements and Performance 2023 proved to be yet another busy year for the Furness Railway Trust. Its htorie FUrnS R2ilway 0-4-0 I<0m0tive No. 20 of 1863, which is Britain's oldest working standard gauge steam locomotive, made a very sueeessful visit to new audiences at the DidLxJt Raijyray Centre in Oxfordshire followed by a period of operation at Blaenavon's Heritage Railway in south east Wales. At Blaenavon, FR 20 was able to take i*ntre stage in the Railway's 40 Anniversary Celebrations as well as its Autumn Steam Gala. The locomotive also steamed at its home base of the Ribble Steam Railway. The Trust's other operdtional locornotive, Hunslet'Austerity' o-6-osf locomotive, cMbria, was on hire to the Embsay & Bolton Ablxy SteaLn RailaY where it steamed on 62 oc'casions during 2023. The Thist's volunteers were kept busy at its Preston base with the ten year overhaul of Great Western Railway O-6-2T locomotive No. 5643. The engine, which last ran on the 2th December 2022. quickly became a kit of parts as the cab, tank8 and boiler were removed to facilitate IpectIOn and repairs. All the stripped components are being cleaned, repainted and put into store ready for refitting at the appropriate time. The ehassis has also been lifted in order that a wheelset can be sent away for its tyres to be reprofiled. It is difficult to convey in these short words the large amount of time and effort that has already been put into this projeet by Trust volunteers. The restoration of Great Western Railway 4-6-0 'Hall' cl&ss locomotive No. 4979 Wootton Hall has ineNitably taken a baek seat whilst work is foeussed on No. 5643. however, it has been possible to acquire some key components, including a new driver's brake valve and a second hand coupling rod which help to take the project fonyard. Work has also continued on refurbishing the tender tank One of the higights of 2023 was the return to operational use of Great Fastern RailHTry royal saloonNo. 5 of 1898 wbicb had been the subject of extensive restoration bYTrl members at Preston. The work included repairs to internxl w(MxlworK including the fl(x>r, re-upholstery of internal panels and furniture, installation of new lighting and a new kitchen. The coach re- entered SeThi at the Ribble Steam RailWaS Autumn Steam Gala and proved to be hugely tK)pular, being fully bLM)ked on both days. Work has continued on the restoration of Peckett 0-4-oSTlocomotive Coliban, although there was a big disaptK)intment when a prof1Onal FK)iler examination revealed that the inner firebox had little life lefL The Trustees will need to Consider the Options open to them for taknns forward this project in 2024.

ally. as predicted in last year's rep)rt, the restordtion of former Furn Railway l¢xomotiveNo. 25 of 1865 klas akn had to be delayed whilst resources are committed to other projects and signifi(xnt progress on this projeet is unlikely to take pla in the immediate futu The Trustees, annual Risks and Vulnerabilities Review continues to identify the need to attract more volunteers and the Trustees endeavour to grow the Trust's workforce. All activities of the Fllrn Railway TnLSt are undertaken by volunteers. There are no paid stsff employed by the ThLsL 5. Financial Position Totsl ineome. at £54.901, was slightly down on that for 2022 (£58,737) refiecting the withdrawal fron] traffic of1(motive No. 5643. which reduced locomotive hire income by nearly 25 (Ynt to £37.438. However, this anticipated shortfall was partly made up by an increase in donations and Gift Aid which rose by over 60% to £10,549. Expenditure OD Charitable Activities rose slightly with locomotive repairs and restoration together with coach Testoration aecounting for the majority of outgoin&s. Further significant expenditure on lowmotive repairs is to be expected in 2024 as the overhaul of the near ntury old No. 5643 reiVeS thorough overhaul. This will require specialist engineering work in some areas. Insurance. at £4,336, has risen notsbly induding the need to insure 5643 whi]st under repair. Net current assets rose s]ighdy during the year from £239,230 to £249.195 which puts the in a good tK)sition to be able to fund the ongoing repair of locomotive 5643 as well as other projects. With interest rates having risen in recent times the Trustees opted to open a second savings account resulting in a significant increase ITh bank interest r1Ved from £776 to £4.401. The extended hire of Furness Railway locomotive No. 20 during 2023 was the key reason for travelling eXnSeS of £1,325 being incurred. all of which was Gift Aided back to the Th]sL 6. Reserves Policy The ThteeS believe that the Furne&8 Railway Trust's current finances continue to be satisfactory. There is an on80in8 need to maintain an appTopriate level of reserves to provide for future overhauls of the Trust's operational I{oOtiveS and coaches. FundTaisin8 will continue primarily for this purFK)se and also to fund the longer terni restoration projects. The FRT continues to be heavily reliant un its volunteer workforce to operate and to progress projects. Once again. the Truste wish to thank all members and follower5 of the FRT for their continued supwrt and generosity during 2023. The ThJstee8 dedare that they have appD)l the The&s, Report alx)ve.
