Welcome to the website of East Yorkshire Railway Society. The society was formed in 1991 to bring together and encourage railway enthusiasts of all ages and interests with monthly meetings featuring videos, photo presentations and talks by members and guest speakers covering a wide range of railway topics. Members' interests are varied, including historical, modelling, steam, modern image and overseas railways and our membership includes some excellent photographers and modellers. Some of their work can be seen on our feature pages and you can click any of the photos on this page for larger images.
You can also find us on Facebook.

We meet at Driffield Community Centre, Mill Street, Driffield YO25 6TR. 7:00 for 7:30pm on the second Monday of every month, excluding December and August. There's parking at the Community Centre or at nearby Mill Street YO25 6TN (73 spaces, free after 6pm). It's about a ten minute walk from Driffield Station. See map. Annual membership of the society is now only £5 with £3 admission to meetings, £4 non-members.

Into the New Year with Tom Robson presenting 'Modern Image of the Last Ten Years'. Tom got the 'railway bug' from his father Phil, his earliest memories are of being dragged around Doncaster Carr Loco to see the scrap line of 56s and 58s. Tom's enthusiasm for railways turned into a career, starting out at York station fresh out of college in 2017 working for Virgin/LNER. Last year he moved to the freight sector.

With Phil a founding member of the Yorkshire Wolds Railway, it was natural that he should also become involved as a volunteer. He also manages to volunteer on the Wensleydae Railway as well as fitting in his numerous photography trips. Here are a few images from the show, please note that they are screenshots from the meeting, so the quality is not as good as the original images. Click the pictures for a full screen image.

Following the AGM in February, Mike Waudby filled the rest of the evening with 'From the Land of the Long White Cloud to the Baltics', a journey through New Zealand then back closer to home with scenes in Latvia and Estonia. A very entertaining programme of traction, including some preserved steam in those countries from around ten years ago.
