Stafford Railway Circle

A Little Bit About Us
The Circle consists of enthusiastic members who meet a couple of times each week to share their common interest in railways. We have several model railway layouts (details of which appear here), all of which are built to exhibition standard. However, you don't have to be interested in model railways in order to join: the Circle actively promotes interest in all aspects of railways and associated commercial transport. We welcome members who are not railway modellers, but who enjoy being in the company of like-minded enthusiasts.

Would you like to join us?
We offer several classes of membership, designed to cover a number of age ranges and needs. These are detailed below. Further details can be obtained by .

Secretary or Chairman who will be pleased to supply directions and opening times for your visit.

ASSOCIATE MEMBERSHIP - this is designed for those who wish to be part of the Circle and who are unable to take part in the clubroom based activities. We have a number of 'postal' members around the country who simply wish to keep in touch by being an Associate Member through our monthly magazine 'Linesider'. £23.00
FAMILY MEMBERSHIP - designed to allow parents and children to become members with a saving over individual subscription rates an attractive proposition. We do prefer this option with young children who must be supervised by parents during clubroom opening hours or other activities.

These rates are active from 1 January 2009. There is a reduction applied to the above rates for 'part-year' joiners (roughly a twelfth off for each complete month of the year elapsed). Please contact the for full details of this facility, or membership of the Circle in general.
