Annual General Meeting
We meet on Wednesday evenings and Sunday afternoons.
Evenings feature talks on railways and model making, project nights when members show their current work, ‘you can do it’ demonstrations and film shows.
Weather permitting, Sundays are spent operating the railway and giving rides to visitors to the park.
Members free on Wednesdays meet during the day and work on outside projects and grounds maintenance.
Special event days currently planned for 2017 are:
18 - 19th February Manchester Model Engineering Exhibition
Saturday 6th May Diesel day
12th - 14th May Doncaster Model Engineering Exhibition
17th- 18th June Woodvale Rally
24th - 25th June Open weekend (full catering on the 24th, limited catering on the 25th)
7th - 9th July IMLEC efficiency competition, hosted by ourselves
Others to follow!
We welcome new members of any age - visit us on any Wednesday or Sunday afternoon, come along to one of our evening meetings or contact our Secretary.
You don’t have to be an engineer, just have an interest in modelling, in running a miniature railway or in our industrial heritage.
We can guarantee a friendly welcome and help in broadening your knowledge and interest in a wide range of subjects.
