The Helston Railway, in Cornwall, has announced that their Pink Train has raised an incredible £834 for St Julia's Hospice.
In October 2017, volunteers from the Helston Railway painted one of their diesel locomotives pink for the last day of the season. The aim? To raise money for local charity, St Julia's Hospice, which is run by Cornwall Hospice Care.
Hard working volunteers at the railway painted the locomotive pink overnight for the last day of the 2017 season. Fast forward to March 2018 and the railway has presented the Cornwall Hospice Care with a cheque for £834.
