UK - Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway Society

In early 1950 members of the Bradford Railway Circle got together and started a correspondence group discussing the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway. They placed an advertisement in the March 1950 issue of the Model Railway Constructor inviting like minded individuals to join. By 1956 a regular Newsletter was in production and its first editor, Tom Wray, was at the helm.

Since that date membership has grown steadily and we now have over 800 members in the UK and overseas.

The Society aims to bring together all those with an interest in the ‘Lanky' whether it be in historical research or railway modelling. We have a range of regular publications which we believe are the best of any line society. Go to the Publications page to find out more.

We also have some superb books, details of which you can find on the Books page of our On-Line Shop. We have a large collections of photographs and drawings many of which have been digitised and made available for research purposes.
