We are delighted that after a lot of hard work catching up on maintenance we are able to offer running days to the public again on the first Saturday of each month from April to September, as above, from 10.00am to 4.00pm, starting Sat 5th April.. We have also completed the build of our new ground level 5″ line around the site as a new attraction.
We run several events during the year that are open to the public to showcase some of our activities and to provide a good day out, especially for families.
We also run our portable track at some local fetes, for details see Events.
MEMBERS PLEASE NOTE
The Club site at Westbury is open to members seven days a week, however Monday and Wednesday are regularly used for site maintenance by the working party teams. Please come along if you can and assist in this essential part of keeping the club running.
The Club is now open most Saturdays and an active members WhatsApp group, as well as the regular club newsletter, is a great way of knowing when others will be attending the club to run their models. To join the WhatsApp group please contact a member of the committee. The regular club morning on Fridays is still popular throughout the year.
From the 1st Saturday in April throughout the Summer months we hold our public open days, please come along and enjoy participating in running the “White Horse Miniature Railway.” The more members we have at these events the easier and more enjoyable they are.
Gate codes have been advised in our Newsletter, so if you wish to attend the railway at any another time you will need these codes to access the site. If you are unable to find details of the current code feel free to contact a member of the committee.
Boiler testing is available to all members and information can be obtained on which days boiler testing is available by contacting one of our boiler testers, or any member of the committee for more information. There can be no guarantee of ad hoc testing being available.
