Association of

Shrewsbury

Railway Modellers

A friendly club for local railway modellers. Established 1989.

Our next meeting is:-

5th June 2024.

 

Mail coaches to TPOs; the early railway vehicles of the post office (1830-1845) - including some  influences on early carriage design.  Talk by Tom Nicholls.

 

    The Association of Shrewsbury Railway Modellers was formed over 35 years ago and currently has around 30 members.  We meet on a monthly basis for illustrated talks, demonstration and “show you how” evenings on a variety of prototypical and model railway related subjects led by members and well-known modelling experts. 

 

    Members’ interests cover all the model railway scales, from Z gauge through to gauge 1 and G scale and further.  As a group we pride ourselves on being friendly and try to offer help and encouragement to beginners to railway modelling and “old hands” alike.  The Association also has close links with other local clubs such as the Platform 3 Model Railway Society (Shrewsbury) and the local Gauge O Guild Group.

 

    We meet on the first Wednesday of every month, except August at Bayston Hill Memorial Hall.  Meetings start at 7.00pm. 

 

    If your hobby is railway modelling and enjoy talking about railways and modelling, or want to learn more about how to go about it, then join us at one of our meetings and see what the Association is all about.
