Ladies Open Evening

On 10th January 2023 Fareham & District Model Railway Club will be hosting a ladies only evening.

Interested in model railways?

Always felt that it was a hobby just for men but wished you could join in?

Why not come along and see if it might be something that you enjoy? We will have a semi a demonstration a tour of the clubhouse and buildings and refreshments.

Remember you don’t need to know anything about model railways at this point. We are here to help you learn and really keen to get more female club members at F&DMR Club.

Booking for this event is essential so make sure you contact Bron.

Blott On The Landscape – Layout Construction.

Our layout, Blott on the Landscape, is finally wired and ready for scenery. 

Aidan and Richard did a great job of painting the various areas in the appropriate colours, ready for adding scatter, more buildings, people etc.

Blott is a purely fictional setting, so called because it will have a grimy scrap yard in the foreground, somewhat annoying the country folk who live in the rural surroundings.
