Whitby & District Model Railway Club

Whitby & District Model Railway Club A group of railway modellers who meet in Sleights twice a month on Saturdays (See dates posted on our page.)

The Whitby and District Model Railway Club was formed in 1988, by a group of railway modellers living in Whitby and the surrounding area. The club meets at Sleights Village Halls, approximately fortnightly on Saturday afternoons from 1pm to 5pm. Currently, the club has several layouts built to a range of gauges, including O and OO. We also have a number of members who work in N, HO, OO, EM, P4, O-

14 and O. The club meetings are informal, with members either using the club layouts, bringing their own projects to work on or just popping in for a social cup of tea! We have a wide membership base, with people regularly traveling from the Teesside, Scarborough and Pickering areas, as well as people more locally from the Whitby area. Our current members have a wide variety of skills and interests, and regularly pass on these skills through helping those who are less experienced. We also usually have at least one ongoing club layout project, with all members encouraged to get involved. The club would welcome new members and would be happy to hear from anyone who would like to join us.
