THE LMS-Patriot Project is hopeful its new'5551 Club' will help raise essential money needed to complete major work on the motion of new-build 'Patriot' No. 5551 The Unknown Warrior.
The project is seeking 500 people to join the club for a single donation of £55.51. If all 500 places are taken, the appeal will have received £27,755, which with Gift Aid could potentially net just shy of £35,000.
To encourage people to join, members are being offered the chance to win a seat on No. 5551 's first train, something that is ordinarily only available to donors of £1,500 or more.
The names of all 5551 Club members will be added to a draw, and a winner selected once the 500 members target has been reached.
