Collett Coach

Brake coach designed by Charles Collett

Collett Coach

This coach, built in 1941 to a design by Charles Collett, Chief Engineer of the Great Western Railway. We have not researched its full history, but we believe it was at Quainton Road until 2012 when it was acquired by a private collector. It was donated to us in 2026. It is basically sound but requires restoration. Our intention is that it will be used as a café and visitor centre. If you are interested in getting involved in the restoration, please contact info@vobr.org.uk . You can also make a specific donation via JustGiving https://checkout.justgiving.com/eoatevfm3m If funds remain after restoration, or we cannot complete it, we will use your donations for other VoBR projects.
