MARKET PLACE
Last updated on 26th February 2012.
Also visit the Market Place to purchase the G Scale Society Technical Manual.

The G Scale Society was founded in 1987 and now has over 1400 members in the UK and overseas. It caters for all modellers working in G Scale and has a liberal approach, believing that enjoyment is just as important as rivet-counting, but with no bias in either direction.
Explore this site to see what we have to offer.  If you like what you see then why not join us?
As a member you receive the following benefits:

4 quality Journals delivered to your door every year.
Membership of 1 or more of 27 informal Area Groups which exist so that members can share their modelling experiences and run their stock on other members' lines.  Many area groups also have winter indoor meetings.
An annual programme of garden railway visits in your area.
Members' rate admission to our annual convention and general meeting, which is held at a central UK location and features working layouts, trade stands, and slide or video shows.
A membership card and enamelled badge.
A G Scale Society pictorial calendar with photos of members' railways.
Access to the Members' Only Area of this website.

G SCALE SOCIETY ON FACEBOOK
The G Scale Society now has a Facebook group called G Scale Society on Facebook.  The aim of creating this group is to open up a 2-way communication channel with the membership of the Society.  It is a closed group so membership of it has to be approved and is only available to G Scale Society members.
If you would like to join the group then click on the 'Like' button below.


WEBSITE ISSUES
Updating the website is proving a little problematical at the moment.  I am attempting to maintain normal service, but it is not possible change any of the navigation buttons without breaking the site completely.  Please bear with me if you find any out of date links.  A new look website will be launched in a few months time.


SOCIETY DIARY
The Society Events Dairy is now probably the largest ever produced and extends to 7 pages of 2 columns.  If you are intending to attend a show or garden open day then as so many events have been added since the one printed in the Spring Journal you really need to check the latest version online.  Click here to see the diary - this is in the members' only area of this website so you will need your username and password.

25TH ANNIVERSARY SHOW VIDEOS AND DATE FOR NEXT YEAR'S SHOW
Videos of the show have now been added to both National Event and Videos pages.
Next year's National Event will take place on Sunday 24th March 2013 a
t the same venue, Stafford County Showground, Weston Road, Stafford, ST18 0BD

EMAIL ADDRESSES WANTED
For 2013 membership renewals the committee are looking into a more efficient way of dealing with PayPal renewals.  For this we require members' email addresses.  If you are happy for us to hold your email address as part of your membership record then please send it to .
