BRITAIN'S
GREAT LITTLE
RAILWAYS

Home Page Members Members map Standards Join Us Contact Us Diary Britain's Great Little Railways was formed in 1994 to create a forum for the many operators of small gauge miniature or narrow gauge railways from 15" down to 7¼" Through the organisation it is possible to exchange views/ideas on many matters. There is also a link with the Office of the Rail Regulator which now controls HMRI through our membership of the Heritage Railway Association which enables us to ensure that we are involved in various matters of legislation at the formation stage with an opportunity for input. The HRA membership also gives our members access to the benefits of that organisation at a lower cost as a group.
You can see where we are by clicking on "Location Map" or "Details of Members" so that you can visit a site convenient to you. Also look at our Diary to see what Special Events are planned.
The HRA will take the leading role for all railways which come within the scope of HMRI but for those with gauges below 350mm it is BGLR that
are in the initiative and take the lead advising the HRA whenever their larger negotiating powers are needed.
The organisation is managed by the Directors with the Annual General Meeting normally being held in March/April each year.
During the year two formal General Meetings are held which are hosted by one of the member railways and are thus in different locations around the country. These are usually in March/April and October/November to be outside operators main running seasons.
