Welcome to the Weymouth & District Model Engineering Society
Once again, Welcome to Weymouth & District Model Engineering Society.
Whether you are a highly accomplished model engineer or a complete novice, whether young or old, there will always be a warm welcome to new members at our club. Our philosophy is one of enjoying a hobby in the company of good friends and having an opportunity to learn new skills. You do not have to own your own locomotive to join us, as the club has two, which members can use once suitably qualified.
We meet on every Tuesday evenings (19:00 onwards) and Saturday’s (10:00 onwards) in our club room which is part of the Budmouth Technology College. Steam up days, usually on the First and Third Saturday’s of the month and in the Summer months on an adhoc basis on Tuesday evenings. The 16 mm, 5″ and 7 1/4″ engines and rolling stock are usually given a run out along with the various traction engines that belong to the club members raising steam.

Some pictures from last Saturday’s club meeting. We had ‘Tich’ completing some more miles on the 7 1/4 ground level, as well as a Station Road Steam ‘Stafford’ in for a successful steam test.
16mm was also in action with a few trains making their way round the circuit.
Several road steam engines were in for hydraulic and steam tests, so we really were a hive of activity!
Keep an eye out for our club members too this weekend at the Chickerell Steam And Vintage Show! ... See MoreSee Less
