Donate

125 Group is a volunteer-led charitable organisation, formed in 1993, dedicated to preserving the High Speed Train (HST) and the memory of this iconic train. We have no paid staff, so every donation goes towards supporting our preservation efforts.

How your donation helps

Keeping any vintage locomotive going is a massive task, and keeping our fleet of power cars and Mk3 coaches operational is an even bigger and more expensive one. With the end of mainline HST operation approaching, your support matters more than ever.

Your donation helps us to:

  • Maintain and operate our fleet of HST power cars and MK3 coaches.
  • Provide lectures and presentations on the history and operation of these vehicles
  • Provide opportunities to see and experience the HST.
  • Carry on our preservation work for the future, so that the HST can be seen and enjoyed by future generations.

Why give monthly?

A monthly Direct Debit gives us a steady, predictable income to maintain and operate our fleet, and it helps us plan ahead. Even £5 a month adds up as more people give. You can cancel at any time. If you would rather make a single gift, choose Give once above.

Thank you for helping us to keep the HST alive. If you have any questions about donating, please contact us at donate@125group.org.uk.
