North West Kent Group
The North West Kent Group provides local Gauge 1 activity for members in South East London and Kent, west of the Medway. In conjunction with the Mid Kent Group we operate a portable track, Invicta Track, which usually enjoys three or four outings a year. Between September and May we meet on the second Friday of the month at Donnington Hall, Barretts Road, Dunton Green TN13 2UN from 7.30 to 10.30 p.m., to enjoy an evening of chat and more formal activities. Our members have a wide range of expertise covering all aspects of Gauge 1 and prototype interests.
