Something a bit different.

If a company has been Struck off (Events: "Dissolution (First Gazt)" and "Dissolution (Final)" in 2013 and then "Restored to Index" this month) has been reopened (not sure of the term) what kind of money would you be looking at for doing this?

I know a solicitor has been involved (who arent cheap) and a AC92 document ("Order of Court to Restore to the Register of Companies") has been completed.

The company was struck off for not filing annual returns back in 2012/2013.

Thanks

Happened to me a couple of years ago when I moved house but forgot to shift registered address. Took me about three months to sort out, but I didn't need a solicitor, did it all myself. Cost me a few hundred quid in fees to the Treasury Solicitor that's about it. Got company administratively restored, got bank account back, got the Bona Vacantia funds back no problem. Treasury solicitors office were really helpful too.

I have nothing to do with the company, not a director or shareholder etc. I was keeping an eye on them thats all.

The company provides "rail transport services on a preserved railway" and had assets of a few (non-mainline) locos. They didnt file their annual returns so the company was shutdown.

Correct me if I'm wrong but those assets are now owned by the Crown?
Who owns what now?

The assets have been declared bona vacantia. Look it up and then google Treasury Solicitor to see how ownerless property is treated following a company dissolution.

Sounds like he's wondering who might have the sort of money to restore his old company.

Wonder if, as well as forgetting to file the company return, he's forgotten to file company tax returns?

It depends how much money they lost to the Treasury Solicitor because they didn't clear out the bank account first
