Hillingdon Railway Modellers is a group of railway modelling enthusiasts based to the West of London in the West Drayton/Hayes/Yiewsley area.

Interests of our members cover the majority of the smaller gauges, (N, OO, HO, O and narrow), with club layouts and test tracks in OO and O.

The club usually takes its completed layouts to three or four exhibitions a year. New layouts are under construction, so if you've never built a model railway, you can learn on how to do it and, in March, we have our annual modelling and photographic competitions.

On the social side, we enjoy the occasional day out to places of railway interest to in the South of England.

A small group of us like to sample the beers at a real ale pub and we also try to have a curry night every so often and, last but not least, our annual Christmas dinner, for members and their partners.

Test Track Days

Due to building refurbishment there are no test track running dates currently planned. The building work is nearing completion but until its completed and handed over we cannot set up the O gauge and OO gauge test tracks and make it safe for visitors.
