Reefsteamers 15CA appeal

[John Ashworth]

Shield Chemicals are kindly assisting Reefsteamers Association with the raising of funds for repairs to our 87 year old Class 15CA Steam Locomotive No.2056. She is a good, strong steam locomotive which hasn’t been able to run for over four years due to some expensive repairs needed to the boiler, and we need to get her out onto the rails again!

Shield Chemicals are sponsoring and hosting an SMS-based competition to help raise funds for those repairs. Shield Chemicals specialise in automotive cleaning and paint care products. You will see their products at retailers, autofactors and hardware stores country-wide.

Please help us raise those funds by participating in the 15CA SMS Competition. Simply SMS the word 'Sheen' to 33729 to be put into the draw for a R10 000 prize! SMSs are charged at R1.50 each. You can send in multiple SMSs if you like! J

The prize draw will be on 1st September 2013. The competition is officiated and it will be audited. All queries relating to this competition can be directed to Simon Bennett, Shield Customer Care Line 083 256-3708 (8am-5pm on weekdays only, please.)

The Terms and Conditions for the 15CA SMS Competition can be found at our website at http://www.reefsteamers.com/css/News/Sh ... ompetition
and also on the Reefsteamers Facebook Site https://www.facebook.com/groups/reefsteamers/

All proceeds will go towards replacing the boiler flues on the Class 15CA locomotive. Go on!
Send in a quick SMS and help Reefsteamers to get their No.2056 back on the high-irons again!

Please feel free to forward this email to your friends, family and associates.

PS: For those interested in 15CAs, don't forget that FOTR is also struggling to get our own 15CA no 2850 back into operation. We're getting close, but any offers of funding, materials and labour would be greatly appreciated.

See http://www.friendsoftherail.com/phpBB2/ ... .php?f=154 for pictures and progress reports.

Contact any of the FOTR committee or the forum administrators (or just turn up at Capital Park on a Saturday morning) if you want to assist.
