The Royal Electronic and Mechanical Engineering Corps (I think that is
what REME stands for) at Arborfield, have had some very good experiences
- especially as they have put some details of their vehicle collections
on their site (which comes free with their email account). They get 3-5
email enquiries a week, and a small flow of donations and sales as a
result of their publicity.

Contact me off-list if you would like to speak to them.
