Whangarei Steam and Model Railway Club (Inc)

The Whangarei Steam and Model Railway Club is located in the Heritage Park grounds (access through Gate 2) and operates diesel and a steam locomotive, jiggers and two 1924 restored trams for the public on running days. The club facilities are also available for public hire on request.
The tracks, built entirely by the club's members, have grown over the years, and presently there is approx. 2km of single track. Volunteer club members ensure the continued operation of the club on a self-sustaining basis. This includes restoration work in fully equipped workshops, development of model layouts and management of a growing historical archive and our small museum.
