About the Club

The Edinburgh and Lothians Miniature Railway Club was founded in 1951. The Club has layouts in N, 009, 00, 09, 0:16.5 and 0 gauges, though due to the size of our premises normally only one layout is assembled for running, maintenance or construction at any one time. We have a small collection of reference books and a comprehensive model railway magazine archive.

Prospective members are welcome to visit the club room in Piershill on the east side of the City of Edinburgh. The club is open on Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 7.30pm - 10:00pm (approx.). We will be pleased to meet you and show you around the work in progress.
