The aim of Evergreens is simply to bring together people from all walks of life who share a common interest in running miniature trains, model engineering and the railway heritage in general.
New members are always welcome at the Evergreens Miniature Railway. You don’t even have to have your own engine or any engineering experience. We’re sure you’ll find something to interest you at Evergreens.
