Welcome to Our Visitor Guide

Parking Information

Parking is available on-site in designated areas. Please avoid parking on nearby public roads. If you're towing a trailer, navigate with care, particularly near the steaming bay. Watch out for pedestrians near the clubhouse.

Child Safety

Children under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. While we welcome their enthusiasm, the site can pose risks due to moving trains and hot locomotives. Ensure they stay safe and avoid creating hazards.

Photography Policy

Feel free to capture memories of your visit but ensure you have permission before photographing other people's children. Photos or videos of others must not be uploaded to social media platforms without consent.

Visitor Registration

Upon arrival, check in at the clubhouse. Non-driving visitors must sign the guest book and wear a Visitor badge. By signing in, you agree to follow our Society’s bylaws, available on the main noticeboard.

• The Track Marshal oversees all activities.
• New drivers must complete a familiarisation lap with an authorised member.
• Ensure your loco brakes are functional before joining the main track.
• Drive cautiously and adhere to the 5 mph speed limit.
• Do not leave a steaming loco unattended.
• Report issues to the Track Marshal immediately.

Operating Your Model

Bring valid boiler and insurance certificates to the Track Marshal. Without them, you won’t be allowed to operate your model. Pressure vessels above 3 bar-litre require certification from a recognised authority.

For vessels under 3 bar-litre, ensure tests have been conducted within the past 12 months.

Youth Driving Guidelines

Children under 14 are not permitted to drive. Those aged 14–17 may operate tracks if they are junior society members but cannot carry the public.
