Find out where and when we meet and what we are doing just now.
Established around 1960, our club exists to promote the hobby of Railway Modelling in and around Perth. We are celebrating 50 years of PMRC this year and still going strong! We meet every Monday and Thursday evening at our club room near Kinfauns in Perthshire and always welcome new members to come along for a look around before joining.
We have 5 exhibition standard layouts at the moment and are working on two projects: "Laurencekirk", based on the actual station on the "WCML", north of Montrose, set in the late 1950's - early 1960's and Wilberforce Junction - a OO gauge model based on Georgemass Junction practice which will make its debut at our 2010 exhibition; details to appear soon. Two of our club members have commenced building a HO layout set in Canada. Additionally, maintenance work on the existing layouts keep us busy throughout the year.
We run what has become the most successful provincial model railway exhibition in Scotland "A Celebration of Model Railways" always held in Dewars Ice Rink in Perth over the last weekend in June. Another selection of high quality layouts and trade stands awaits our visitors:
The next exhibition will be on Saturday June 26th & Sunday 27th, 2010.
We also attend around 12 exhibitions every year throughout the UK and our layout details are available from this website.
We are members of The Association of Model Railways Scotland (AMRSS) and participate every year in the national exhibition Model Rail Scotland held at the SECC Glasgow over the last weekend in February.
