Club News

Friday 20 March 2020

Hillingdon Railway Modellers has been in continuous existence now for over 40 years.

We meet every Thursday evening at Yiewsley Baptist Church Hall (side entrance), 74 Colham Avenue, Yiewsley, Hillingdon, London UB7 8HF.

TEST TRACK DAYS
We also open our three separate test tracks, O, OO and N gauge, to the public five times a year on special Saturdays.  The dates of these Test Track Open Days are shown in the Events Diary on this website.

You can bring your own fine scale stock, including DCC and DC, to run on our test track. 

Help and advise is also available from our knowledgeable membership on all aspects of modelling. The OO and N gauge test track will also be running and DCC is available on these track as well. 

Admission £6. Refreshments are available all day. Entrance is via the small gate at the right hand side of the building.

The nearest station is West Drayton on The Elizabeth Line, about 12-15 minutes walk from the club.

Special OPEN DAY - not a test track day
On Saturday 4th July 2026 from 11.00-15.00 hrs we are holding a public club Open Day.  

Our Exhibition O gauge layout Grindley Brook will be running, as will a new N gauge layout plus our new OO layout which is currently being built.


Admission is free only on this day, but donations will be welcome. Refreshments will be available all day.
The purpose of this Open Day is to show modellers what we do and hopefully encourage new members to join us.
