However, weekend services will continue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>VGR has managed to acquire about 10,000 concrete sleepers, which is almost enough to complete the entire section from Muckleford to Maldon, thanks to state government support. However, the cost of transporting and installing the new sleepers means the not-for-profit organisation needs community help to make the project a reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>&#8220;While these concrete sleepers were free, having been kindly gifted to the Tourist and Heritage Sector by the Victorian Government, it still cost VGR around $150,000 ($15 per sleeper) to transport them from the depot at Tarrawarra to Muckleford,&#8221; Rob said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>&#8220;On top of the transport cost we need to spend an additional $20 per sleeper in associated hardware \u2013 such as pads and clips \u2013 required to install them.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>To donate to the sleeper appeal and help keep the much-loved VGR tourist railway on track visit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vgr.com.au\/donate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">vgr.com.au\/donate<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>In addition to the sleeper appeal, VGR is also raising funds to replace its ageing \u2018little\u2019 Takeuchi excavator and ensure its civil gang can do the delicate work required to replace the track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Volunteers are also continuing the painstaking work to restore the railway&#8217;s steam locomotives and hope to see them return to service in the coming months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>&#8220;Everyone is working hard, from our drivers, fireman, conductors and service staff providing our weekly tourist rail services to our civil gang, mechanical department and Young Volunteers Group,&#8221; Rob said.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We always welcome new faces who want to join our dedicated team and any donations are gratefully received to assist us with our various projects. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>&#8220;The Castlemaine and Maldon Railway Preservation Society is a non-for-profit organisation and donations of $2 or more are tax deductible.
