Members' and Visitors' Running Days 2025
The club has running days where any member of the club can run their railway, traction or stationary engine at
our facilities. The aim of the day is to run, enjoy, socialise and show models to other club members. Unfortunately
these events are not open to the public due to restrictions on our insurance policy.
Members of other clubs are welcome to attend any members' day throughout the year. Boiler certificates will
be required. Please get in contact if you wish to run from another club to let us know to
expect you (and to make sure we have enough tea and biscuits).
Members day running is usually from about 10am to 5pm.
