Milton Keynes Model Railway Society We have been operating as a club since 1969 and meet in Bletchley twice a week. New members welcome! His contact details are: [email protected]

In an area steeped in railway history and tradition, 1969 saw the emergence of a new model railway club onto the scene. With the foundation of the designated new city of Milton Keynes just two years earlier, MKMRS was one of the first organisations to embrace Milton Keynes into its title. From 1994 until late 2012 we were based at the Bletchley Park museum site where we had an extensive display of operating layouts. The unexpected loss of our Bletchley Park facilities resulted in the club having to take stock and relocate to an industrial unit in Bletchley which now serves as our home. Railways and model railways are ever evolving and we operate trains from clockwork through to the latest Digital Command Control systems – for we recognise not just where our hobby has come from over the last 100 years, but where it is going in the future. Hopefully, our website will encourage you to find out more about us; we have around 60 members ranging from beginners through to those who can scratch build locomotives. We are always pleased to welcome potential new members who wish to learn more about the hobby or contribute their existing expertise to assist us in promoting model railways in an area rich in railway history. Prospective members are welcome to contact our Secretary, James Woodley, about trial evenings without obligation to join.
