Being a club member
Whether you’re taking your first steps or bringing years of experience, Fareham & District Model Railway Club is a place to share ideas, learn from other members and get hands-on.
There’s plenty to get involved in
Build layouts together
Get involved in planning, constructing and developing club layouts—from tracklaying and wiring to buildings, scenery and the finishing touches.
Run your trains
Bring your locomotives and rolling stock to run on our dedicated tracks, enjoy operating trains and compare notes with fellow modellers.
Take layouts on tour
Join the team taking layouts to exhibitions across the country. Help set up, operate trains and share the layout’s story with visitors.
Enjoy club outings
Enjoy outings with fellow members, share your railway interests and get to know people beyond the clubroom.
Workshop evenings
Learn practical skills, exchange techniques and work through modelling challenges at workshop evenings for members.
Workshops for younger members
Give younger members a chance to try practical modelling, develop new skills and share the fun of the hobby. Contact us to find out more.
Club evenings
You don’t need a layout of your own to enjoy being part of the club. Bring your ideas, your questions and your enthusiasm. There’s room to learn from one another, work on a shared project, or simply enjoy a conversation over a tea or coffee.
