The Heritage Alliance is delighted to welcome The new Heritage Fuels Alliance as a member. The Heritage Fuels Alliance has been formed by the Heritage Railway Association, the National Traction Engine Trust, the Federation of British Historic Vehicles Clubs, the Transport Trust and the Association of British Transport & Engineering Museums to lobby on behalf of members who use coal in railway locomotives, road vehicles, pumping stations etc… in the UK. The Group is promoting the considerable benefits to the economy and to society generally of heritage railways, steam rallies, museums etc and challenging any plans that might lead to the elimination of heritage coal burning in the UK. The heritage steam sector would collapse if the right to burn coal were withdrawn, whilst pollution and the risks to public health from coal burning by heritage users is minimal.
