Thamesiders MRG is an active group of model railroad enthusiasts with layouts representing North American railroads in both N and HO scales. Watch the video below to find out more!

Next Meeting:

We are now ready to attend the NMRA British Region convention, where the HO / Essex Belt Lines will be exhibiting alongside our members’ T-Trak contributions. The HO layout will be open to visitors whom would like to try out their DCC stock, and we intend to have some second chance sales.

The convention will be the next and final opportunity of 2026 to see the HO layout in exhibition standard; otherwise don’t forget we are running a Quiz Night on Saturday 21 November, followed by our last physical meet of 2026 on 28 November.
