Many years ago I believe a club known as THE BELFAST MODEL ENGINEERING CLUB...existed,are any remnants of it left? I have just had a custom built workshop built,and am now in the process of putting in some machinery,....SUPER7 MYFORD.what would be a good

John, The Belfast & County Down Miniature Railway Society are listed in the current edition of the Southern Fed. Handbook. Not sure if they are a general model engineering club or a railway society.

This is extracted from the entry......

Location of premises: Upper Gransha Road Donaghadge, C. Down

Club site: Off Killaughey Road

Running days: 1st & 3rd Sundays of the month

Unfortunately, no other contact details are listed however a quick search throws up the following:

Secretary:

Tel 028 9188 2013

I have not confirmed these details though....

Regards,
