Welcome to Olney Model Railway Club!
Olney Model Railway Club (OMRC) - a passionate group of model railway enthusiasts dedicated to creating detailed and intricate miniature train layouts. Our club encourages members to gather, share ideas, and work on projects together, so whether you're new to the hobby or a seasoned enthusiast, our club offers a supportive community where you can indulge in your love for model railways.
The club, founded in 1993, is small and friendly and currently has around 20 members, all of whom live in Olney or the surrounding areas of Milton Keynes, South Northants and North West Bedfordshire.
We'd love to welcome new members into the club, whatever their level of skill or experience and whether they be a beginner or an expert. You'll have the opportunity to assist with building our layouts, learn or develop your skills - or just run some trains!
Can you help...?
Towards the end of 2024, Olney Model Railway Club had to vacate the premises it had rented for a number of years, as the owners wished to re-develop the site. Whilst we now meet in the Olney Centre this places limitations on the activities we can offer our members: we are therefore looking for a new permanent home to build and display our club layouts and allow members to meet, construct models and run their own locomotives and rolling stock.
If there is anyone who is able to offer the club suitable permanent premises in the Olney area, at a nominal rent, please contact The Club Secetary Malcolm Haynes, on Telephone No.07752 683619, or by email at: malcolm@olneymrc.org.uk.
