Coincidentally, there is a 1 page write up in this months Current Archaeology on the Computer Conservation Society who built the replica of Colossus at Bletchley Park and maintain other machines. Their website at www.computerconservationsociety.org gives more.
Just don't forget that Colossus is on long-term loan to The National Museum 
of Computing, and /not/ Bletchley Park. If you buy a BP ticket, then you 
need to pay extra to see Colossus.
It may be on the same grounds that BT sits on, but TNMoC is a separate 
entity, and funded entirely on its own and pays rent to BP for the 
privilege of being there.
