About the Society

The Greenwich and District Narrow Gauge Railway Society was formed in 1968 by a group of ‘narrow minded’ friends in the SE London area and have been active in the world of narrow gauge modelling and the prototypes. Several members have had work published in book form and items from the Society Archives are also published on a regular basis in the modelling press.

Exhibitions
Having organised several general shows in the area, the decision was taken in 1983 to emulate the ‘specialist’ shows such as ‘ExpoEM’ and organise what would become the UK’s first all narrow gauge model Railway Exhibition Expo Narrow Gauge and this continues to be the primary event for the Society. Although there are no Society layouts members regularly exhibit their own layouts with help from fellow Society members.
