Welcome to our web site. Initially we will be introducing the Romsey & District RMS with some brief details of the club, its interests, location and the layouts that we own. For those whose geography does not cover Southern England, Romsey is a town with a population of about 13,000 and lies on the edge of the New Forest some 10 miles north-north-west of Southampton. Its claim to fame being a 9th century Abbey and Broadlands House, the home of the late Earl Mountbatten of Burma.
Please see our about page for more details about the club.
Interests:
The interests of our members are wide and varied. These range from N gauge to live steam garden railways, British Rail, all the Big Four, narrow gauge plus continental. Many members have an interest in railway preservation of some form.
Exhibitions:
We hold an annual exhibition, usually over the first full weekend of March, in the Crosfield Hall close to the Romsey town centre. It may not be the largest in the South but we aim for quality, with model railways operated as a railway, and limited trade support. Every layout has been seen running under exhibition conditions before an invitation is extended, unless we know the builder and what he/they can produce. Details of our past 2023 Exhibition can be found here.
