As the frames of 'The Unknown Warrior' are rapidly coming together at Tyseley Loco Works we now need to purchase new rivets and nuts.
Around 140 Philidas nuts are needed. These are a special type of self-locking nut that use mechanical deformation in their collar to grip the bolt threads. In addition to these, we need around 1000 rivets.
With is mind we are asking you to consider sponsoring any amount of nuts or rivets. All sponsorships will help go towards assembling ‘The Unknown Warrior’ and you will get your name recorded on our Roll of Honour page on our website.
