Model Train Displays - RHRS Modellers Group
For anyone interested in model trains the Gallery at the Robertson Heritage Railway Station is open Friday and Sunday afternoons from 1pm until about 5pm (sometimes there is a competing event and we aren’t open at those times but for the most part we are).
Currently we have three operating layouts featuring: HO based on a NSW theme, N Scale based on an English country scene and an N Scale American scene. This latter layout is only small. In addition we are currently building a TT scale layout based on an English scene. It doesn’t matter if you know what the scales mean but for those who do then this may be useful information.
Please feel free to pop in a have a look around. A gold coin donation would help but certainly not compulsory.
We currently have about 8 members and we build the layouts ourselves. It gives us the opportunity to practice any practical skills we might have eg building the timber structure of layouts but also some electrical work or we can learn some new skills (you never stop learning!).
Additionally we have the opportunity to learn some artistic skills when designing and creating our layouts. We have plans for the future too whereby we intend building a larger N scale American layout and in time another NSW HO layout.
If you would like to learn some of these skills, or already have them, please feel free to come along and have a chat. You may even decide to become a member. If nothing else you can have a coffee/ tea and a biscuit on us (sometimes cake depending on how clever our members are) :-)
