March and District Model Railway Club

Back to Activities

March and District Model Railway Club is a volunteer-run organisation with the aim of promoting an environment where people living locally can meet other like-minded persons to share and foster interest in model railways.

This activity is good for wellbeing because

  • It’s a chance to learn more about making model railways and how they run
  • It’s a chance to meet with like-minded people and share an interest
  • Model-building helps to keep your mind active

What to expect

You do not need to book these sessions or be a member, you are welcome to visit at any point.

Anyone over the age of 18 is welcome to become a member.

The club meets at St. Mary’s Church Parish Hall, Wisbech Road, Westry, March between 7pm and 10pm every Wednesday.

The hall is on the ground floor with tables and chairs, a disabled toilet, electricity, heating, and a fully-fitted kitchen with free tea or coffee and biscuits. Please bring your own mug.

There is plenty of parking behind the Hall.

Members are all unpaid volunteers who provide materials for their own modelling, but the club has a budget for items used on the club’s layouts and projects.

More Information

March & District Model Railway Club, established in 2003, is a volunteer-run organisation with the aim of promoting an environment where people living locally can meet other like-minded persons to share and foster interest in model trains, railways and allied pursuits. Particularly important is social interaction while learning new skills, and improving knowledge of the hobby with support being encouraged amongst the members of the Club.

The Club promotes or facilitates educational meetings on both model railways, and the history of railways and how they work as transport systems. The Club holds exhibitions and open days to encourage and foster an interest in model railways.

The Club organises social and educational visits for members to other organisations, preserved railways, museums and other places of interest to the members.

You can attend three sessions for free before committing to joining the club.

The club has a yearly membership fee which can be paid in split payments.

 

This project has received grant funding  from Healthy Fenland.
