Welcome to the LWMRS's website.

The site was launched now in time to promote the society's 2010 exhibition, and so we initially concentrated on content related to the exhibition. Links are being produced to older content, which will be moved across as time allows.

On 12th June 2010 a small group from the society, together with a group from Manchester, paid a visit to Pete Waterman's Model of Leamington Spa. Below are a number of photos from the visit.

Congratulations to Society member and exhibition manager Chris Mead whose layout Overlord topped the Hornby Magazine Layout of the Year 2009 Individual Category.

The poll, voted for by readers of the magazine, covered 39 layouts which had been featured in the magazine during 2009. The Club Layout category was won by Pendon's Dartmoor layour.

The society held a successful Open Day at our premises on Saturday 23rd January 2010

Leamington and Warwick Model Railway Society has over 70 members mainly from South Warwickshire but several come from much further afield. We moved into a spacious new club rooms just outside Leamington Spa in April 2006 which provides over 3,500 sq ft for layouts, discussion area, library and kitchen. We are currently cataloguing our extensive collection of magazines, journals, books and photographs for use by the membership and outside visitors.

Leamington & Warwick Model Railway Society started life on 20th February 1975 when 18 keen modellers met at Milverton Village Hall. At that time it was known as Milverton Model Railway Society, a name it bore until November 1976 when it changed to its current name upon obtaining new premises in Warwick. The "2C" in the LWMRS logo is the BR code for the Warwick (ex-LNWR) shed at Milverton.
