Welcome to the website of the Thamesiders Model Railroad Group, An NMRA British Region group.
The Thamesiders Model Railroad Group is a group within the Eastern Division of the National Model Railroad Association (NMRA) British Region. We are a small group of model railroaders, primarily from Essex, who met through the NMRA and decided to form a local group to further our knowledge and enjoyment of North American railroads , both full size and model. Our primary activity is currently the construction and operation of an HO scale modular layout. Modellers working in other scales are welcome to join us.

For further information please see the About Us page.
The Thamesiders MRG have been ivited to show the "Essex Belt Lines" at the Seaboard Southern Show to be held in Horsham, West Sussex,  on the 25th September 2010.


The Thamesiders MRG have been invited to show the Essex Belt Lines, our HO scale modular railroad at the 2010 Warley MRC show. The show will be held at the National Exhibition Centre 20th and 21st of November 2010. The show will include a large selection of US outline layouts and traders in a special area to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the NMRA. This year also marks the 65th anniversary of the British Region. This will be our largest setup so far incorporating a mixture of main and branch modules.
