100 Club

Join The L&BRT 100 Club - TODAY!

Long-standing members will recall that in the early days, much money was raised through a 100 Club. These funds helped to buy Woody Bay Station and get the railway started. Having achieved its aims the club was put in the scrap siding in 2003.

The L&BR Trust has reintroduced the 100 Club to raise funds for the expansion of the line. 

The total monthly prize fund will be up to 50% of the tickets sold for that month. The 1st Prize is 45% of the prize fund with two smaller consolation prizes.

Sold in blocks of 12 for a year's worth of draws - each entry costing just £1.
