Surrey
Group
The
Surrey Group
Our
group was formed in 1998, and meets in the afternoon on the second Tuesday of
each month. We are fortunate in being able to run on several excellent tracks at
members’ homes, but we also visit from time to time the Gauge 1 track at the
Sutton Model Engineering Club - well known to members from the annual GTG.
Boiler
testing facilities are available, and the group contains several very
experienced enthusiasts who are able to offer sound advice both on loco
construction and on operation.
We look forward to welcoming new members. Please contact the meeting co-ordinator Alan England alan.england@ntlworld.com
