Welcome to the Heywood Model Railway Group Website

The Heywood Model Railway Group meets on Monday evenings (but not bank holidays) between 19:00 and 22:00 at the Champness Hall Drake Street Rochdale. We have our own rooms in the building where several models are set up for maintenance or building work to be carried out. These models are owned by the Group and range from "N" gauge through to "O" gauge. Members own Locomotives and Rolling Stock being used on these models for exhibition purposes.
Several of our club models and some of the members own models have made visits to both the Group's own exhibition and to those organized by other railway clubs.

Further information about the Group and membership can be obtained by email to the secretary or by making a personal visit on a Monday evening to the group premises at the address shown above. See the how to find us page.

If you would like to see a brief history of the Heywood Model Railway Group and some information on long gone models then this can be found in the Archive pages.

Visit the.... ....page for details of our next exhibition and other forthcoming Model Railway events within a reasonable driving distance from Heywood. Pictures from our previous exhibitions can also be seen here.

The Group has over 30 permanent members and normally holds its own exhibition in March each year.
Our next exhibition The main exhibition in March 2009 will again be held at Heywood Civic Centre.

At the time of writing there is plenty of free parking at and near the Civic Centre.

The Forum The Heywood Model Railway Group forum is now only available to the original registered users and it should be impossible to register as a new user directly. If anyone needs to register then this can only be done manualy by the webmaster. In the first instance you will need to send an email from the webmaster link below and request registration. Once registration has been setup you will be informed of the username and password that has been created for you.
You will then be able to log on and change the password to one you wish to use from then on.
Sorry about making this complicated but we were getting a lot of perverts registering just to get a link inserted on our forum to their unsavoury websites.

The Guestbook A new format guestbook has been added to replace the older version that was being heavily "Spammed". This version requires you to enter a code from a graphic at the foot of the page, so should prevent the "Viagra" brigade from running automated scripts to post adverts in the book.
Please feel free to read or add your comments to the book.
