Renown Repulse Restoration Group has been successful in raising funds for buying and rebuilding our locomotives by selling shares. We are a private partnership and at the moment we are not limiting the availability of shares. We intend to convert to a limited company when we have Repulse working. At this stage we will limit the availibility of shares, but for now, the shares should not be considered a financial investment. However, each share bought does help us and you rebuild locomotives and make them available for working for the enjoyment of the public and local community businesses.
Shares are priced at £100 each but, exclusively to RRRG, you can also earn shares for doing work on our locomotives: 10 work party attendances will earn you a share. Shareholdings are calculated annually after the end of the RRRG financial year on 30th June and benefits are awarded for the number of complete shares held at this time.
A painless way to buy shares is to set up a standing order mandate in favour of the Group. You'll find a form to download on this website. It's hard to overstate how much we value standing orders; they give RRRG a regular, predictable income and make it easier for us to plan the major expenditure that a project of this nature entails.
A note on the RRRG voting system: most votes are held on the basis of one vote per member or per shareholder. However we reserve the right to have certain votes deemed “material to the future of the Group” taken on the basis of one vote per share. All shareholders are welcome to appoint a proxy to vote for them at Meetings. See RRRG Constitution for more details.

All RRRG shareholder benefits are subject to availability and may be withdrawn by the Committee of the Renown Repulse Restoration Group in exceptional circumstances. Benefits are cumulative, so for example 100 shares entitles you to an extra quarter day driver experience and model Class 50 over and above 50 shares. Images are for illustration only and actual items received may differ.
