Intro
Heywood Model Railway Group meets each Monday evening and also on Wednesdays during the day at Unit 4 Park Works, River Street, Heywood, OL10 4AB.
We have some 40 permanent members who are currently involved in building or maintaining the clubs models. These models vary from "N" gauge to "O" gauge and we are at the moment constructing two new models in "N" and "OO" gauge.
The Heywood Model Railway Group was formed in 1969 by two or three enthusiasts who wanted to share their knowledge about model railways and they originally met at one of the founder members houses in Heywood - hence the name. However, the group wasn't based at Heywood for many years, being initially in premises in Rochdale. Only in later years did the group succeed in being based in Heywood.
