Twickenham & District Model Railway Club was formed in 1961 and now has approximately 80 members. Our membership has a wide range of interests and skills and our layouts and club facilities reflect that diversity.
Members can take as much, or as little, from the club as they want. Some join to be able to run their trains, some prefer building layouts or realistic operation. Many members just enjoy the company of fellow enthusiasts and drop in for a coffee and a chat, or to watch a video. There is a lot of expertise in the club; if you have a modelling problem, another club member usually has the solution. These are some of the benefits of membership:- |

MULTI GAUGE RUNNING TRACK
If you're interested in running trains - this is for you. All popular scales and gauges are represented and quite a few not so popular ones as well! Our multi gauge running track can host N/OO9/HOe, TT/HOm/On2, OO/HO/On30, EM, P4/On3, O (2 & 3 rail)/SM32 and G. |

SCALE LAYOUTS
We currently have seven layouts at various stages of development covering many different themes - N, N (trams), OO, O and G. Members can help build them, run them and ultimately exhibit them on the exhibition circuit. |
|
LIBRARY
Our rapidly expanding library is now a major club asset, with many members having a quiet read whilst enjoying a cup of tea in our new social area. Club members can, of course, borrow reference books to help them with their latest modelling project. |
